Recount Day 4: Dayton still leads but loses 70 votes

The latest recount results show Democrat Mark Dayton continuing to lead Republican Tom Emmer but the numbers are 70 votes fewer than Election Night results. But those results don't show the high number of ballots challenged by Emmer's campaign.

Emmer has challenged 735 ballots. Dayton challenged 175 ballots.

All but two counties have finished their work. Ramsey County is expected to finish on Friday. Hennepin County is expected to finish on Monday.
