Seminole County updates vote count in tight Congress race

The race for Congress in Florida's 7th District remains contested, with Republican Ryan Elijah's campaign signaling confidence he will emerge victorious. The Seminole County Elections Office updated its totals Nov. 4 in the contest between Elijah and Democrat Bale Dalton. The latest count showed the race tightening, but not enough to trigger a recount. The totals from Seminole and Volusia counties have Elijah up by 1,701 votes out of more than 320,000 ballots cast. "While our elections officials complete their important work, we are confident Ryan has secured the votes needed to win," Erin Isaac, a campaign spokeswoman, said in a text to The Daytona Beach News-Journal. "We will continue to watch closely, but there simply aren't enough ballots to change the outcome." Dalton's campaign released a statement taking issue with Isaac's statement. “This race remains too close to call, and it is incumbent on all of us not to pretend otherwise until all ballots are counted. We have not received verified information from either Seminole or Volusia County’s Supervisor of Elections Office on the number of outstanding ballots," Dalton said in the statement. “Every single Central Floridian deserves to have their voice heard," he said.
