Kitsap County has a new prosecuting attorney.
Republican challenger Tina Robinson outlasted incumbent Democrat Russ Hauge and could finally declare victory over Hauge after the latest vote tally by the Kitsap County Elections Division Monday.
Robinson prevailed with 50.4 percent of the vote to Hauge’s 49.4 percent.
The vote tally Monday was 40,843 for Robinson, and 39,972 for Hauge — a lead of 871 votes for the challenger.
Election workers will update the vote count on Nov. 14, but officials estimate there will be only 50 remaining ballots to tally.
The race has been a back-and-forth affair since Election Day.
Hauge led in the first vote tally on Election Day, but Robinson took the lead last Wednesday by 32 votes.
Hauge reclaimed the lead again Thursday and maintained a dwindling advantage Friday, only to lose it Saturday as Robinson went in front for good.
