BISMARCK — The State Canvassing Board certified the 2024 General Election results Wednesday, making them official for state, judicial and legislative contests.

Election results reviewed during the State Canvassing Board meeting were submitted by the 53 county canvassing boards, which are responsible for reviewing results for all contests on the ballot from each precinct within their county. The county canvassing boards are required to certify their county contests 13 days after election day.

Automatic recounts will take place for two supervisors of Soil Conservation District races. They are for an unexpired two-year term in the South McLean Soil Conservation District for which 441 write-in votes were cast and a term in the Towner County Soil Conservation District for which 104 write-in votes were cast.

The demand recount threshold has been met for two seats in the state House of Representatives.

In Legislative District 9 in northeastern North Dakota, Republican David Brien may request a demand recount for an unexpired two-year term. Brien, with 2,266 votes, trails Democrat Collette Brown, with 2,302 votes. Democrat Jayme Davis received 3,032 to capture one of the two House seats.

In the Grand Forks’ Legislative District 18, Democrat Mary Adams may request a demand recount. Her vote total of 2,779 trails Republicans Steve Vetter, with 3,465 vote, and Nels Christianson, with 2,837 votes.

Recounts must be requested within four days of the State Canvassing Board meeting. The State Canvassing Board will reconvene on Dec. 2 to consider the results of the automatic recounts and potential requested demand recounts.

In the 2024 General Election, 371,975 eligible voters cast ballots for a statewide voter turnout of 62.61%.
