Race for Atlanta's Mayor Settled - WSJ.com
ATLANTA -- A recount in the Atlanta mayoral election reaffirmed that former state Sen. Kasim Reed defeated Councilwoman Mary Norwood, concluding one of the city's tightest political contests in decades.
The final margin separating the candidates was 714 votes out of more than 84,000 cast in the Dec. 1 balloting, according to election officials.
The recount was performed Wednesday at Ms. Norwood's request and added one vote to her total. "The recount results are final, and now it is time to accept it," she told reporters at her campaign headquarters.
