Today's required canvass of the ballots from last Tuesday had the potential to impact a race for a seat on the county board.
In the race for three open seats, Alan Walter and Incumbent Jack Nybakken took the top two spots.

After today's review of the ballots - including the addition of some absentee ballots received after election day - Weppler's lead had increased to 81 votes.
The county auditor says that's not a small-enough margin to trigger an automatic recount in the race.
