Miller originally won the race by 10 votes and last week Anthony filed for the recount.
Anthony, the City of Las Vegas Ward 4 Councilman, called the District C election a "disaster" after Friday's announcement.
District C election is a disaster. I’m up by 2700 Election Day. Weeks later down 10 with 139 discrepancies. Election director cannot determine a winner. Clark County Commission orders a special election. Political pressure forces certification. Now 74 new ballots in a recount.
