Darden Rice officially conceded her bid for Pinellas County Commission today after learning that even if she won all of the provisional ballots cast on Tuesday, it still would not trigger an automatic recount in her her Pinellas County Commission District 3 Democratic primary loss to Rene Flowers. A candidate needs to finish within half a percentage point to trigger an automatic machine recount.

WMNF spoke with Rice this afternoon.
