FL-HD93: Recount underway in tight HD 93 race between incumbent Democrat Katherine Waldron, GOP challenger Anne Gerwig

Palm Beach County voters, Democratic Rep. Katherine Waldron and her Republican challenger, former Wellington Mayor Anne Gerwig, will have to wait a while longer to know who will occupy the seat representing House District 93.

Gerwig leads slightly in the current count, with just 0.46 percentage points (356 votes) separating her and Waldron after mail-in and in-person ballots were fully tallied. That lead is inside the threshold to trigger a machine recount.

Secretary of State Cord Byrd ordered a recount for the race Thursday. It commenced at 10 a.m. Friday, with the Palm Beach County Canvassing Board conducting a public logic and accuracy test at Supervisor of Elections Wendy Sartory Link’s main office.

“I expect to be successful at this point,” Gerwig told Florida Politics late Tuesday. “Nothing would surprise me, but I’ve received many congratulations tonight.”
