The Frisco City Council Place 1 special election recount has been completed.
The recount found no discrepancies in the originally canvassed votes, reaffirming Ann Anderson’s win over challenger Mark Piland, according to a Feb. 23 news release from the city of Frisco.
The background
Piland requested a recount Feb. 16, and it was completed by the city in conjunction with the Collin County Elections Administration and the Denton County Elections Administration.
Piland ran against Anderson in the Jan. 31 election. Anderson won with 4,063 votes, and Mark trailed with 3,953 votes, according to results canvassed by the city Feb. 10.
The Jan. 31 election was held to fill the unexpired term for Frisco City Council Place 1 after John Keating announced he was running for mayor in May.
Looking ahead
Anderson will be sworn into office March 3.
