BOOM. Wilson closes the gap, with many more ballots left. This is a tremendous result for her.
She trails Harrell by just 1.9% and 4,300 votes. There are many more ballots remaining than at this point in the primary count.

Wilson lost ground on the Thursday drop in the primary, actually doing worse on that day's returns (51.1%) than today's (51.8%). May repeat here, but there's not much to go on with limited transparency on what kind/time of votes were counted today.

Thursday drop. Wilson trails Harrell by 9,908, 5.7%. The gap begins to close.
We are apparently STILL not into a drop box sample yet, or only including some drop box data. There's a TON of votes expected to lean Wilson out there.

Well. That's not a shift to Wilson. She did lose ground on one day of the primary count, but needs something dramatic now.
90k to 100k votes left, Wilson trails by 11,183. She needs at least 55% of the remaining votes.

Katie Wilson gained 8.89% between Election Night and the final results in the primary.
To feel good about her overcoming the general gap and having a similar performance, you'd want her to be about 4.5% behind or better after today's drop. (She actually LOST ground on the Thursday drop in August.)

Here's a look at the raw numbers in the Seattle mayoral contest, with 2021 for scale. Harrell has lost a lot of ground from his 2021 win.
Wilson gained 17,221 votes more than Harrell between the primary and general. That would be more than enough to eliminate the 8,319 vote gap here.

Harris’s decline vs Biden was much more severe in counties with higher density. Democrats have to stop taking cities for granted in their increasing rhetorical & policy focus on sprawling suburbs.
