Unofficial results for Pennsylvania’s U.S. Senate race have triggered a legally required automatic state recount.
Secretary of the Commonwealth Al Schmidt said that vote totals for incumbent Senator Bob Casey and challenger Dave McCormick are within the one-half of 1 percent margin that triggers a mandatory recount under state law.
As of Wednesday, unofficial results for all of Pennsylvania’s counties show the following results for the two candidates:
Robert P. Casey Jr. – 3,350,972 (48.50%)
David H. McCormick – 3,380,310 (48.93%)
Once every county finishes counting ballots, they will have to recount them. The recounts can begin no later than Nov. 20 and most be complete by noon on Nov. 26. All counties must report results to Schmidt by noon on Nov. 27.
As of Wednesday afternoon, county election officials reported having 60,366 uncounted provisional ballots and 20,155 uncounted mail-in and absentee ballots.
