Ballot Access News
On September 4, the North Dakota recount for the June primary, for Secretary of State, was completed. Roland Riemers had sought the recount because the law required him to poll 300 votes, and the original count showed him with only 247. The recount only netted him one more vote. See this story.

Riemers asked the state to also include votes for him, for voters who
voted for him and no one else for Secretary of State, but who also cast
votes in the Democratic or Republican primaries for other offices.
This is physically possible because the three party primary ballots are
all on the same piece of paper. But the state refused to count those
votes.
