Metro Race: Hughes up by More Than 4,000 Votes

By JAMES PITKIN

Probably still too early to call, but it’s worth noting that Tom Hughes has a lead of more than 4,000 votes over Bob Stacey in the race to run the Metro regional government.

Hughes has 126,897 votes in Washington, Clackamas and Multnomah counties combined. Stacey has 122,459 votes in all three counties.
