Brevard County Supervisor of Elections Will Conduct a Manual Recount for the City of Cape Canaveral City Council Member Race
Melbourne, FL – Nov. 10, 2026 – As a result of today’s machine recount, the Brevard County Canvassing Board has ordered a manual recount for the City of Cape Canaveral City Council Member race. In accordance with Florida law, if a machine recount results in a margin of .25% or less, a manual recount will be ordered.
“After performing the machine recount for the Cape Canaveral City Council race, there was no change in the total number of votes, so the race is still a margin of 0.2%, which triggers a manual recount,” stated Supervisor of Elections Tim Bobanic.
The manual recount will be conducted at 9:00 a.m. on Wednesday, November 11th and continue through November 12th if necessary. A manual recount reviews the overvotes, undervotes, and blank ballots in a race.
Notice is hereby given that the machine and manual recounts will be conducted in accordance with Florida Statutes 102.141(7) and 102.166 and Florida Administrative Rule 1S-2.031.
