How many people in Seattle and King County voted late?

Answer: A LOT!!!!

King County Elections updated their turnout statistics and countywide turnout improved to 40%, while Seattle turnout surpassed 50%. Only 27%+ of Seattle ballots have been tabulated in these first two days. So... stay tuned.

Bruce Harrell is up in early election night results. But his initial advantage may not be enough to withstand a late ballot surge for Katie Wilson. We'll see.

Too early to call this race, for sure.

It’s a Democratic night!

There's no such thing as an "off year" election. There's no "off" years, there's only "ON" years. Stop using this bad, turnout-crushing term, @msnbc.com!

Every election matters, for every level: local, state, federal. Regardless of what's on the ballot, people need to hear their vote is important.

You returned your ballot, right? Drop boxes close at 8 PM! Don't go to a post office - postmarking delays could lead to your vote not counting!

The @mariners.com continue to give us something to cheer about!

Congratulations on the epic win! M's advance to ALCS after outdueling Detroit.

So, perturbed then?

This is an incredible piece by @anatosaurus.bsky.social that deserves not only to be read but shared with anyone you know working for a Democratic member of Congress, state legislator, or other elected official.

In honor of @mariners.com clinching the division....

This is cancel culture and corporate-ordered censorship, but Republicans will cheer it.

False, Shirley.

No one who is familiar with our advocacy would claim that NPI only loves big trees and parking.

You could have easily discovered that we have worked to get rid of parking mandates by opening our advocacy page (screenshot below). But nope... you'd rather draw erroneous conclusions.

For example, this neighborhood in Wedgwood has trees on private property that can be seen and enjoyed by anyone using the public street.

The aerial photo is by NPI staff.

The main tree in the image is Luma, a western red cedar saved from the axe without stopping the redevelopment of the parcel.

For years, we have warned Sara Nelson that she is dangerously out of touch with Seattleites.

Our polling has been consistent. She has had so many opportunities to course correct... and squandered them all.

This is the result of those choices.

Nelson looks like a goner in November.
