David Blair files for recount in Montgomery County Executive primary
is the latest development in the closely watched, well-funded and fierce rematch between Blair and Elrich. The two men previously went toe-to-toe in the 2018 primary. Elrich won that election by 77 votes, going on to win the general election for his first term leading Maryland’s most populous county.
The winner of this year’s nomination will face Republican Reardon Sullivan in November, although in this deep-blue county, the winner of the Democratic nomination typically wins the general election.Blair’s petition opts for a manual recount of the more than 140,000 votes cast in the race. A losing candidate has until three days after local certification of the results to file a petition for a recount, according to Maryland state law. Montgomery County Board of Elections spokesman Gilberto Zelaya said the recount is scheduled to begin on Friday and run through the weekend. He said the first day of counting will likely set the pace of how many ballots election staff can recount in a day, and officials will have a better sense of the timeline then.
Before the ballots were discovered, Elrich led by 42 votes and claimed victory. Blair gained seven votes with the additional ballots, narrowing the margin to 35 votes.
