Las Vegas-Area Commission Certifies 15-Vote Win For New Member

LAS VEGAS (AP) — The elected body with jurisdiction over the Las Vegas Strip has signed off on a Democratic former Nevada secretary of state's 15-vote electoral victory over a veteran Republican Las Vegas City Council member.

Ross Miller's narrow win over Stavros Anthony was certified Tuesday by the all-Democratic Clark County Commission after a recount that Anthony paid for expanded the winning margin from 10 to 15 votes.

Anthony previously called for a revote, and the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports his campaign is promising to contest the result of the Nov. 3 election to the Nevada Supreme Court.
