 Tue Nov 28, 2006 10:27 pm One vote doesn't matter? CO mayor wins by ONE |

| Quote: | Dacono recount favors incumbent
Election officials in Dacono announced today that the town's mayor had won re-election, by a single vote.
Three weeks after the election, Wade Carlson was confirmed by a final vote count of 368 to 367.

If he had lost by one vote, would that vote still matter?

When it comes to national races, the chance that one vote will actually make a difference is virtually nonexistant, but when it comes to local elections, it's an entirely different ballgame.
