Shoreline City Council candidate Will Hall continued to widen his lead over opponent Patty Hale Friday afternoon.
Hall now leads Hale by 722 votes compared to 448 votes Wednesday and 413 votes Tuesday.
Hall now has 53 percent of the vote to 47 percent for Hale.
The two are competing for the position now held by Councilwoman Janet Way, who finished third in the August primary. Hale finished first in the primary, but Way asked her supporters to back Hall.
The returns come from 13,962 Shoreline voters. That's almost 90 percent of the 15,565 people who voted in the last City election.
Officials had counted ballots from 41 percent of registered Shoreline voters. Voter turnout was 51 percent in the election two years ago.
