Two Hawaii Republican primary races are being recounted at the State Capitol, with margins so tight the outcome could still flip either way.

• One race has Bob McDermott ahead of state Senator Kurt Fevella by just seven votes.
• The other has Kainani Sousa leading Sheila Medeiros by a single vote.
• Workers are feeding previously counted ballots back through scanning machines, a process running as late as Wednesday.
• A one-vote margin is a first even for veteran election officials, and candidates are on edge waiting for the printout.

Outlook: A final result is not expected until after Friday afternoon, when ballots with invalid signatures must be returned.
