Muscatine County has posted an Administrative Recount 11-7-26 for the November 3 general election. The county labels the report unofficial; its election-results page says results remain unofficial until canvassed.
What the county reports
On page 5 of the administrative-recount report, the House District 96 section lists Nick Salazar with 5,620 votes and Mark Cisneros with 5,099, with 14 of 14 county precincts reporting. The county’s earlier election-night report listed 5,685 and 5,195 respectively. The revised report carries a November 7, 4:05 p.m. footer; the footer does not specify a timezone.
Keep the sources separate
These are figures in the county’s report, not a new statewide or congressional aggregate. Iowa Decides’ existing AP-sourced House 96 panel still displays its separately dated earlier snapshot. This note flags the discrepancy rather than silently combining sources. The county report does not itself establish certification or a new winner call, and this update does not change any published race call or contest score.
The county index and both reports were reviewed November 8. That is our review date, not an asserted first-publication time. Coverage limits and source methodology.
