In a release late Tuesday, the Brent VanNorman campaign backs the election recount outcome.
“After the largest recount in Tulsa County history, the razor-thin results of the August 27th Tulsa mayoral election have been certified. Each candidate lost votes due to ballot errors, but not enough to make the difference. The VanNorman campaign also learned of several opportunities to strengthen election integrity, particularly as it pertains to early voting. While we are continuing to inspect absentee envelopes, at this time, the campaign supports the verified outcome and expresses its deepest appreciation for everyone involved in ensuring a transparent and accurate process,” the team wrote.
Brent VanNorman said, “While the overall outcome didn’t change, the recount has played out fairly, and we stand by the results.”
