Scott County Auditor Announces Candidate Withdrew Recount Request from 2025 City School Election

DAVENPORT – Scott County Auditor Kerri Tompkins is announcing Chris J. Jerome withdrew his recount request for the 7th Ward race in the City of Davenport. The recount began at 9:00 a.m. with the four 7th Ward precincts: D71, D72, D73 and D74. These ballots were run through the central count machines using the same program from election day. All numbers were an exact match with the election day results. Therefore, Mr. Jerome chose to stop the recount.

“It was a great opportunity to run through the updated recount process on a small scale,” said Tompkins. “I am very pleased with the process and the results. Voters in Scott County can be confident of accurate election results. I am grateful to the candidates and staff for a professional and seamless process.”
