Recounts will take place in two local races following the Nov. 6 election.

The District 5 (West End) Cook County Board of Commissioners election will be recounted. After the first count, current Board Chair Ginny Storlie defeated Bruce Martinson 322 to 317, or by a total of five votes.

The other recount will be from a tight race on the Grand Marais City Council between incumbent Anton Moody and challenger Craig Schulte. Moody was declared the winner of this seat on the city council by a single vote, with the tally of 344 to 343.

Both recounts will take place Thursday, Nov. 15 at the Cook County Courthouse. The city council recount will take place first starting at 9 a.m. The recount for the county board will follow.
