Close BG School Board Race Results in Limbo Until Provisional Votes Counted, and Possible Recount

BOWLING GREEN, Ohio-Following the recent Bowling Green Board of Education election, unofficial tallies show Tracy Hovest, Steve Bateson, and Howard “Ardy” Gonyer leading. However, with a slim margin separating the candidates, the final results may change pending the counting of provisional votes and absentee ballots.

Wood County Board of Elections Director Terry Burton anticipates a recount due to the close margin between candidates. The official vote counts will be announced on November 20, with a potential recount scheduled for the week of November 27 if necessary. In the event of a tie, the winner will be determined by a coin toss.
