Fond du Lac, Wis.(WFRV)--Election day wasn't enough time to decide the 18th State Senate district race between incumbent Democrat Jessica King and GOP challenger Rick Gudex 
    Election results show Gudex defeated King by a margin of just 590 votes.
    Because it's so close, King has decided not to concede.
    She's considering asking for a recount, but will wait until the county clerks in Fond du Lac, Winnebago and Dodge Counties - and the Government Accountability Board - are done canvassing.
    That means, it could take almost two weeks to declare a winner.
    If a recount happens, it could cost taxpayers in those three counties more than 26-thousand dollars.
    Local Five's Donald Robinson has the story.
