| Bob Romano indicated today that he intends to officially request a recount in his race that is separated by 20-votes. Essentially, while it's still more likely that Representative Harper-Brown will represent Irving in the next legislative session, nothing yet is certain.
Here's his statement:
I am proud and humbled that so many voters in our community believe I should be our district's voice in the Texas House. In the coming days, my focus will be on doing everything I can to see that every ballot is counted and that every voter's intent is known. We must respect the voters, and protect the trust they have placed in our democracy. To that end, I intend to request a re-count of the ballots cast in this election.
Having seen Mr. Romano's initial reaction to the close race with a desire to go hunting, he probably genuinely is humbled. This is his second straight attempt at Harper-Brown's seat, and the 2006 result was not nearly this close. So his humility is understandable.
Whatever happens: Congratulations on your increased support, Bob Romano. |
