Seattle media, tonight, is going as close as possible to saying Katie Wilson won the mayoral race — without phrasing it as entirely final. (Which is all very defensible at this stage.)
Seattle is shaping up to be the left's second big mayoral win, a sort of West Coast companion to NYC.

Would've been awesome to have just objected to speed-running any one of the THREE CLOTURE VOTES that the Senate took inside of 24 hours to rush this bill out of their hands.
But no.
But no.
In other words, the Court is trying to buy itself two more days to see if the House approves the shutdown deal (which may well moot this case), rather than having to rule *now* on whether USDA can be forced to fully fund SNAP for November. And KBJ objects because she’d just deny the application now.
