## Resource

JR Carter, narrowly losing a Mandan Park Board race by 27 votes, declines to seek a costly recount — even though he was within the legal margin — citing his campaign’s commitment to fiscal responsibility. With top candidates Miles Mehlhoff and Stan Scott securing the seats and Layn Mudder edging out Carter, the fourth-place finisher is choosing to let the results stand, despite the razor-thin margin. Park Board members earn just $100 a month and serve four-year terms.
