Robert Archer will be sworn into the District 7 seat on City Council Tuesday night at 6:00. Archer's win comes after his opponent Lisa Stubbs asked for recount of the votes on Friday after the board of canvassers met. At that point Archer was in the lead by just 3 votes. That was two votes closer than the 5 vote difference reported on election night.
The recount took place today at the Shawnee County Elections Office. Both Archer and Stubbs were present as Shawnee County Elections Commissioner Elizabeth Ensley conducted the recount. In the end Archer was announced the winner by just one vote.
This story is posted for those who don't think their vote counts. How would you like to be that Lisa Stubbs supporter who was too busy to vote?
