Wilson's lead increases in Seattle mayoral race, leaving Harrell further behind
Katie Wilson held onto her lead a week into ballot counting in Seattle’s mayoral race.
Wilson was 1,346 votes ahead of incumbent Mayor Bruce Harrell after Tuesday’s ballot drop. She'd been up 91 votes the day before.
About 1,400 ballots remain to be counted, according to Halei Waktins, communications director at King County’s election department.
The race is still within the margin for a recount.
