PORT ANGELES — Olympic Medical Center Commissioner Jean Hordyk has won a fourth term on the public hospital district’s governing board.
Hordyk, who trailed challenger Heather Jeffers by 75 votes on Tuesday, pulled ahead by 159 votes after the Clallam County Auditor’s Office processed 9,493 more general election ballots today (Friday).
Hordyk had 8,280 votes to Jeffers’ 8,121 votes. Her margin of victory was a slim 50.48 percent to 49.52 percent.
The next count will be when the election is certified Nov. 26.
County Auditor Patty Rosand said it is unlikely that any race will change when the last ballots are counted.
She estimated that the number of final ballots, most of which have mismatched signatures, is “well under 500.”
No other Clallam County races changed between Election Day and Friday.
However, Clallam County voters had sided in favor of Initiative 522 — the defeated state measure that required labeling of genetically-engineered foods — by 50.1 percent in the second count.
County voters were rejecting I-522 by 52.5 percent on Tuesday. Jefferson County voters approved it by 60.4 percent.
