A recount is scheduled for Thursday to certify the result of an extremely close election in Orleans Parish.
Voters on Saturday approved a proposed ten-year renewal of a millage partially funding the sheriff's office, but the margin of victory was two votes.
A French Quarter resident requested the recount and put up more than $2,000 to fund it.
The recount starts at 1 p.m. Thursday in Orleans Parish Civil District Court.
