Recount of county board race decided by two votes set for Wednesday

A La Crosse County board election decided by only two votes will be put to a recount Wednesday.

The recount in the 24th District race begins at 9 a.m. 

Supervisor Leon Pfaff requested the new count, after losing his seat to Kevin Hoyer 299-297 in last Tuesday’s election.

Three write-in votes were cast in the district, which includes towns in the northern part of La Crosse County.

Pfaff was the only supervisor on the 29-member county board unseated in the election.
