LaTrina Leary and Frank Abdnour will have to wait at least another week before finding out which one of them won the Democratic primary for Peoria Township supervisor.
The race remains uncalled with Leary now leading the incumbent Abdnour by four votes, 3,097-3,093. The margin was just a single vote when the last Election Night results were posted on Tuesday.
Peoria County Election Commission Executive Director Thomas Bride said his office will continue to process additional mail-in votes that were sent before and the throughout next week before certifying the results on March 11.
“We will count ballots again Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and then we ll finish on a week from Tuesday,” said Bride. “So any late arriving eligible by-mail ballots – we have some challenge balance still out where they did return in time but something was challenged, usually a signature – and then also, we ll have some provisional ballots to count.”
