That didn't take long:
Democrat Don Barlow is the new state representative in Spokane's 6th Legislative District, a recount of ballots from the Nov. 7 election confirmed today.
Barlow's lead of 260 votes over freshman Rep. John Serben held up in the recount, which involved running the 55,881 ballots through the county's tabulation machines while representatives from both parties watched.
Chris Marr won the senate seat in the 6th - beating an entrenched GOP Senator in Brad Benson. Add Barlow and the 6th LD is now 2/3 Democratic.
