Officials in Kalamazoo County will begin counting nearly 82,000 ballots by hand Monday morning.
Democrat Sean McCann lost his bid for state Senate by 59 votes – less than one-tenth of one percentage point.
Besides it being a tight race, McCann also heard of several problems on Election Day, like ballot tabulator machines getting jammed.
McCann will pay for the recount. It’ll take at least a couple days to complete.
