Summary

Anoka‑Hennepin board served as canvassing board, heard a summary from Anoka County elections director Tom Hunt that turnout reached 25.5% on Nov. 4, and voted 6–0 to certify results and open a seven‑day recount window.

The Anoka‑Hennepin Public School District board served as the canvassing board on Nov. 10 and certified results from the Nov. 4 school board elections.

Tom Hunt, Anoka County elections director, briefed the board and highlighted turnout for the district contests at 25.5%, up from about 15.5% in 2023. "We reached 25 and a half percent turnout, which is pretty amazing," Hunt said. With the resolution before the board, certification opens a seven‑day window during which a recount may be requested.

The clerk called the roll. Directors Simon, Hochman, Audette, Langenfeld, Arco and D'Shane voted aye; the resolution passed 6–0.

What happens next: the certification stands and any recount request must be filed within the statutory seven‑day period; the board said it would present an updated resolution if a recount is requested.
