Incumbent Democrat Russ Hauge has retaken his fragile lead in the race for Kitsap County Prosecuting Attorney over Republican challenger Tina Robinson.

A new vote tally released late Thursday by the Kitsap County Elections Division has put Hauge back in front with 50.3 percent of the vote. Robinson has 49.6 percent.

Hauge now leads by 468 votes.

Hauge led the race on Election Night, but a vote tally on Wednesday put Robinson ahead by 32 votes.

The two swapped the top spot again Thursday after the third vote count.

A total of 71,402 ballots have been counted so far. Hauge has 35,935 votes, and Robinson, 35,467.

Elections staff said the next update will be 5 p.m. Friday, Nov. 7. An estimated 9,500 additional ballots will be counted.
