Shavers holds 189-vote lead on Gilday in race still too close to call

EVERETT — One of the year’s fiercest election battles for a legislative seat inched closer to resolution Tuesday.

Democrat Clyde Shavers held a 189-vote lead on Republican Rep. Greg Gilday in their duel for a House seat in the 10th District. The winner will earn a two-year term representing Island County, north Snohomish County and south Skagit County.

“From day one, we knew this was going to be a very close race so we’re not surprised by the current numbers,” Shavers said in a text message.

Gilday, 44, an attorney and real estate agent from Camano Island, is seeking a second term. He is no stranger to close races as he won in 2020 by 891 votes.
