TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) -Former NFL player Peter Boulware has conceded a narrow defeat in his state legislative race.
With all ballots from Tuesday’s election finally counted Friday, Democrat Michelle Rehwinkle Vasilinda beat Boulware, a Republican, by 440 votes, for an open Florida House seat.
The margin was 0.5053 percent, a whisker more than the half percentage point that would have triggered an automatic recount.
Boulware’s celebrity no doubt made it close in a traditionally Democratic district that includes much of Tallahassee, where he played at Florida State.
