— The Indiana Recount Commission has overturned the results of the May Republican primary election in District 23. Challenger Paula Copenhaver has been given the victory over incumbent State Sen. Spencer Deery. On election night, Copenhaver and Deery each declared victory in the race after Deery received a reported 50.01% of the vote, beating out Copenhaver by just three votes. After the recount, which was requested by Copenhaver, she had 6,332 votes, three more than Deery’s final tally of 6,329. Copenhaver had claimed there was voter fraud and requested subpoenas for testimony and documents, which were denied by the recount commission.
