BETHEL – A requested recount has yet to be scheduled for the House District 91 race won by state Rep. Arlan Jodrey.

In unofficial results, Jodrey won re-election to a fourth term by 49 votes, tallying 2,710 votes to challenger Timothy Carter’s 2,661. Official results pegged the disparity at 56 votes Wednesday, said a Bureau of Elections and Commissions secretary in Augusta.

She said Carter filed the request for a recount Tuesday.

Both candidates are friends and both live in Bethel.

According to Maine’s Post Election Procedure law, a recount is presumed necessary after the initial count if the margin between the candidates is 1 percent or less.

The official margin was 1.04 percent.

State police collected ballots this week from Bethel, Dallas Plantation, Eustis, Gilead, Hanover, Kingfield, Lincoln Plantation, Magalloway Plantation, Milton Plantation, Newry, Rangeley, Stoneham, Upton and Woodstock, and portions of Oxford Township, Franklin Township, Oxford Township and Franklin Township,

It was not yet known when the recount would be conducted, but recounts for other districts and races were under way Wednesday in Augusta.
