Republican candidate for Virginia attorney general Mark Obenshain announced Tuesday afternoon his campaign will officially file for a recount in the contest on Wednesday.
Obenshain’s announcement comes just one day after the Virginia Board of Elections certified the Nov. 5 election results for Democratic state Sen. Mark Herring, who won by 165 votes out of more than 2.2 million ballots cast.
