Recount for Atlantic Beach commissioner Seat Four paused

Duval County Supervisor of Elections Jerry Holland announced that the machine and manual recount for the Atlantic Beach Commissioner Seat Four race in the 2026 General Election has been paused.

The recount is scheduled to restart Nov. 10 at 10:30 a.m. at the Duval County Supervisor of Elections Election Center in Jacksonville.

The recount was ordered after unofficial vote totals showed candidates Lisa Herrold and Jennifer Lagner tied with 3,162 votes each. The public is invited to observe the recount proceedings at the election center, which is located at one Imeson Park Blvd., Suite 100.

The current vote totals do not constitute the official results of the election. Eligible overseas voters have a 10-day extension to return their ballots by mail for the General Election, setting the extended deadline for Friday, Nov. 13. The Canvassing Board is scheduled to certify the official election results later that day.

If the race remains tied, the game of chance to decide the winner is scheduled for Friday, Nov. 13, at 5:30 p.m.
