Note: This story has been updated to say that all 10 precincts are fully reported in Walworth County
SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (KELO) — A two-vote difference between what was logged on a poll book and the number of ballots counted caused a pause in the completion of the vote count in Walworth County, the county’s state attorney Vaughn Beck said.
Beck said 398 ballots were logged on a poll book at a precinct in Mobridge and 400 ballots were counted. The county followed an administrative rule and the resolution board will randomly draw two ballots from a box to equal 398, Beck said.
