PORTLAND – The Maine Supreme Judicial Court has declared a winner in a disputed Democratic primary race in Yarmouth that was initially declared a tie.

In a 15-page decision issued Tuesday, justices ruled Melissa Walsh Innes the winner over Kimberly McLaughlin by a single vote, 485-484.

The June 10 ballot count in the primary for House District 107 gave 485 votes to each candidate.

A recount gave 484 votes for Innes, 482 for McLaughlin and three ballots in dispute.

Innes will face Republican Brian Bicknell in November.
