A Palm Beach County State House race is the subject of a recount, underway now.
Former Wellington Mayor Anne Gerwig, a Republican, leads Incumbent Democrat State Representative Katherine Waldron by .38 of a percent in District 93, which puts the race within the margin for a machine recount.
The Palm Beach County Canvassing Board is conducting that at Supervisor of Elections Wendy Sartory Link's main office in West Palm Beach.
She says just 356 votes separate the candidates.
The results are due no later than Wednesday at noon but Link says they're hoping to have the recount finished by either tonight or tomorrow at the latest.
If the results show the race has drawn closer, state election laws call for a manual recount to be conducted if the margin hits a quarter of a percent. But Link says that is unlikely to happen.
According to the state constitution, legislators take office the day they are elected, so Gerwig is already listed as the state representative for District 93. That's because the margin was not close enough after Tuesday to trigger a recount. But after the two day provisional and vote-by-mail ballot curing process had passed, the margin drew closer.
Gerwig claimed victory in a Facebook post on Election night, but Waldron took to "X" to say that all records of her current constituent cases are gone and that it's still too early to call the race since there are several hundred provisional, military, overseas and curable ballots potentially in play.
Link tells us the only ballots not counted at this point are those from overseas that were postmarked on Election Day.
