TAMPA, Fla. — The Florida Department of State Division of Elections said results for the special election in Senate District 14 do not meet the threshold to trigger a machine recount.
The Hillsborough County Canvassing Board certified the first unofficial results for the Senate District 14 special election on Friday morning and showed Brian Nathan ahead by only 405 votes.
The threshold for a machine recount is one-half of a percent, which would be a difference of 400 votes. Since the difference is over 400, no recount triggered.
On April 6, at 10 a.m., the Canvassing Board will certify the official results and conduct a post-election audit to verify them.
