https://m.lasvegassun.com/news/2020/nov/16/commission-race-in-limbo-with-candidates-separated/Clark County is holding off on certifying the extraordinarily close race for one of its commission seats and could even hold a new election.
The Clark County Commission was set to accept the full results of the Nov. 3 election today, including Ross Miller’s tentative, 10-vote victory over Stavros Anthony for the open District C seat.
But concerns about the results — with Miller’s 76,586 votes to Anthony’s 76,576 — led the commission to delay certifying the race for at least two more weeks, pending further investigation.
Lawyers representing the Anthony campaign told commissioners in a letter that they should consider delaying certification of the race because several “possible voter irregularities” need to be addressed.
Commissioner Jim Gibson said the commission could either certify the race, allowing Anthony to formally contest the result with the courts and potentially lead a judge to rule for a special do-over election, or the commission can directly decide to call the second election itself.
