Depth

Dig five layers into this story — from what happened to the full picture.

L1What happened

What happened: Bailey’s 1,835 and Reveron’s 1,825 are fourth and fifth in the Friday count, 10 votes apart. That is not the gap between fifth and sixth: Glackin has 1,788.

L2Who’s affected

Who’s affected: Jamestown voters and candidates for five council seats. Marisa A. Quinn has 2,226, Nicholas J. Insana 2,126 and Richard J. Smith 2,020 in the leading three positions.

L3Why it’s quiet

How we know: The current figures come from the Rhode Island Enhanced Voting results page. Jamestown Press provides the earlier counting calendar and certification caveat; its older candidate totals are not substituted for Friday’s update.

L4Deeper impact

Deeper impact: The exact remaining-ballot pool is not established by the results page. An earlier Wednesday count of 20 ballots in certain categories is not a current total of all outstanding ballots.

L5Full context

Full context: The Nov. 5 Jamestown Press report schedules provisionals for the day after Friday and military, overseas and cured ballots by Nov. 10. It says results are unofficial until certified by the state Board of Elections.
