The Fond du Lac County Clerk says a recount locally would be done by hand if a recount is requested in the 6th District congressional State senator Glenn Grothman picked up one vote following a canvass of the unofficial votes from the primary election in Fond du lac County and six votes overall. Unoffocial tallies had Grothman and state senator Joe Leibham 214 votes apart. Fond du Lac County clerk Lisa Freiberg says if a recount is requested it would likely occur next week. Counties have until Friday to report their results to the Government Accountability Board, which oversees Wisconsin elections. But the GAB asked counties with close primaries to turn their results in Tuesday so that work could begin quickly on recounts if candidates request them. There are no automatic recounts in Wisconsin.
