Republican Scott Hawkins has conceded to Democratic incumbent state Rep. Rita Fleming in the close Indiana House District 71 race. Hawkins was leading Fleming by 35 votes in unofficial Election Night results, which the Clark County Clerk said was too close to call. The Clark County Election Board held a vote canvass on Nov. 11 after finding a voting machine error that left more than 1,000 ballots uncounted. The discovery and subsequent canvass flipped the race in favor of Fleming, a result that was certified with the Indiana Election Division last week.
