Would be cool to see a version of this map with the new subway map’s style!

I don’t think tourists are as stupid as you think they are. Many cities have multi-line networks where the direction is designated by the terminus station. It’s not a crazy concept.

Right, so why are we building a station at a suburban strip mall with zero housing that is already a 10-15 min walk from a light rail stop? Enforcing reasonable stop separation is a good thing, the only places with 1/2 mile stop spacing should be dense regional centers like Downtown Seattle.

Feeding people can never become a crime!

This is insulting and shameful in a time when a $3 Taco could be the ONLY meal some in Seattle might have.
Taco Stand on Northgate was back open tonight. As I went we watch SPD go around in circles and turns on their sirens a few times. What is this? This seems very strange if they’re doing something wrong then talk to them. This felt like intimidation

I would be very surprised by that considering Bob was front and center in every other Girmay ad on TV.

A lot of other people have been projecting it relative to ED margin, but sort of my core hypothesis is that's flawed because a surge of late turnout means KC Elex is counting votes later (about a day later for each dump than in 2023). That's why I'm expecting a significantly better Mon than others.

Sorry, Y is Wilson's margin, once she gets above zero that means she's in the lead. This is a chart of her margin over time, X axis is days since election. The other lines are trends from other races applied to this one, day-over-day.

Extrapolated this out with tonight's results.
For anyone looking for numbers for the Seattle mayoral discourse, here's a couple excel screenshots to explain what I would expect out of today's drop, and the fate of the race as a whole. First, a day-by-day projection of where I'd expect remaining ballots to end us up. More details below.

This number being true, on the other hand, would also push the Wilson projection back up again so who knows!

Maybe he means total ballots in Seattle, not outstanding ballots? That number was at exactly 279k last time I checked.

Nothing super conclusive. D6 was the smallest lead for a moderate and swung the least of any district towards progressives, but D2 was the next smallest lead and it swung the most of any district. D5 & D1, where moderates dominated, are the most middle of the road, as you can see in the chart

The core here though is that even if today looks pretty bad for Wilson (expect it to!), that may just be what her path looks like! The big progressive jump we usually see on Friday is likely yet to come. (2/2)

More details here (and exactly what to expect in tonight's drop!): (3/3)
In the aggregate of this projection, this is what we would expect out of today's drop. Despite predicting a Wilson victory in the end, it predicts today to be a pretty bad day for her! Only a marginally better dump than yesterday, needing an even higher % of the remaining votes.
