HUNTSVILLE, AL (WAFF) - The Madison County Republican Party Executive Committee closed the books on the District 3 Commission race between Eddie Sisk and Joey Parker.

Parker said the committee voted 4-3 to decline his request for a recount.

Parker came up 32 votes short in the runoff election.

"We're upset," said Parker.  We'll keep our heads high though and show our character."

The decision means Sisk will advance to the November 6th general election.
