Washington: Seattle City Councilmember Sawant recall about tied, but outstanding vote thought to be in her favor

The recall vote against Seattle City Councilmember Kshama Sawant is going to a second overtime, with the early numbers tied (the recall is up by 246 votes with over 39000 counted). All of the commentators seem to suggest that the later votes are expected to break for Sawant, so it sounds like she may survive. Turnout is higher than the November mayoral elections. 

Sawant is the first socialist elected to Seattle's council in 100 years. There's been quite a number of twists and turns to this one. The recall is over Sawant's conduct during the Seattle riots and her failing to comply with public disclosure requirements after she led protestors to the Mayor's house.
