Recount sought in district judge race
A petition filed in York County Court of Common Pleas on Monday is seeking a recount in the District 19-1-01 race for district justice.
Tom Harteis, a City of York employee and part-time paralegal, won by one vote on the Democratic ticket against longtime incumbent Linda Williams, according to unofficial results.
Williams won on the Republican ticket, making it a contested race for the general election.
Three Democratic voters are seeking the recount of the results of the primary. They believe Williams s loss by one vote falls within the 0.5 percent threshold for a recount, the petition states.

With the sale, PA-American will not increase rates for York residents for the first three years and will retain all of the current staff. In addition, a $20 million deposit will be given to the city to help balance the 2021 budget. PA-American Water has also announced it will contribute at least $50,000 to nonprofit organizations throughout the city.
