This development comes after Bowers declared victory Tuesday night. Bowers had the lead by 19 Votes on election night, but over 1200 provisional and absentee votes are in the process of being counted.

Cobb said in a statement Friday:

ā€œWhile todayā€™s ballot count indicates a small lead, I want to remind everyone that the election results are not yet final and wonā€™t be until all votes have been counted and the election is certified by the electoral board on November 15.ā€
