Recount sought in district judge race A petition filed in York County Court of Common Pleas on Monday is seeking a recount in the District 19-1-01 race for district justice. Tom Harteis, a City of York employee and part-time paralegal, won by one vote on the Democratic ticket against longtime incumbent Linda Williams, according to unofficial results. Williams won on the Republican ticket, making it a contested race for the general election. Three Democratic voters are seeking the recount of the results of the primary. They believe Williams's loss by one vote falls within the 0.5 percent threshold for a recount, the petition states.
