(Recount canceled)…It had been scheduled to start Monday morning.
Raul Navarro, a candidate for Imperial Irrigation District Director in Division 3, had requested the recount of ballots in the June 5th election. In the final count, Navarro had missed being elected to the seat by 41 votes. Monday morning, County Registrar of Voters Debra Porter said the recount had been canceled. She said Navarro had apparently changed his mind and asked that there not be a recount of votes. That means James Hanks will remain the reelected IID Division 3 Director.
