One race in Tuesday’s primary was so close the Delaware Department of Elections needed to conduct a recount.

The House District 33 Republican primary was the race required to go to a recount.

After Tuesday night, Morgan Hudson was announced as the unofficial winner by a mere seven vote margin over her opponent, Matt Bucher (Booker).

A recount was done by the Department of Elections Kent County Office, and the results remained the same.

This seat is open after Charles Postles decided to not run for reelection.

Hudson will face Democrat Joshua Pennington in November’s general election. This is a two-year term.
