67 Votes Was The Difference in The Race For County District Attorney

Around 11:30pm, the race for the Schuylkill County District Attorney's seat came to close by just the smallest of margins.

The final unofficial results were

Christine Holman - 15,258
Karen Byrnes-Noon - 15,191.

Earlier in the night when 75% of the county's precincts reported in, Noon appeared to have one the ticket, but at 11:30 the final numbers came in and showed Holman won by a mere 67 votes.

When asked by the Pottsville Republican if Noon plans to ask for a recount, she told the paper that she would not put her family through that.
