WaPo: “Local elections officials will count provisional ballots on Wednesday in the race between Houck and Republican Bryce Reeves. State officials did not know how many ballots remain. A recount could take weeks, and would not begin until the State Board of Elections officially certifies the results. A Republican pick up of two seats would evenly divide the 40-member chamber among Republicans and Democrats. Any tie votes would be broken by Lt. Gov. Bill Bolling (R).”
