This is, by the way, spawned by the ABSOLUTE SHIT TURNOUT NUMBERS we're seeing in #seattle and #kingcounty as of yesterday

So for the love of the gods, VOTE and GET YOUR FRIENDS TO VOTE. And use a BALLOT DROP BOX, not the USPS.

PLEASE.

It's literally lives at stake.

feels like today is a good day to remind everyone that people throughout my life have voted 3-4% meaner than they polled, so if you think ANYTHING is in the bag here, you are _fucking wrong_

Tukwila and Sea-Tac have both banned new ICE detention facilities. Tukwila was one of the places they were looking at large-warehouse rental or purchase for one of their staging-area style concentration camps.

A screencap from elsewhere: Attorney General Nick Brown - @AGOWA - saying: Thank you @WAGOP for showing everyone who you are. Please keep it up. Please keep attacking me with racist insults. Please keep supporting Trump no matter what he does or says. It's important that Washingtonians know where you stand. - NB Quoting: Washington State GOP - @WAGOP - 2h @AGOWA Nick Brown is the ultimate race hustler. @POTUS is delivering for all Americans. Brown supports lawless sanctuary state policies & protects criminal illegals, who are killing innocent law-abiding Americans. @AAGDhillon @DHSgov @KCGOP @PierceGop @FBI @spokanegop [show more]

A Sanders Lauture on Bluesky posting an edit of the famous 1948 "THAT AIN'T HOW I HEARD IT" photograph of victorious presidential candidate Harry Truman holding up a newspaper headlined DEWEY DEFEATS TRUMAN, printed before late ballots reversed the count. In this case, Lauture pasted Wilson's head over Truman's and the errant, early Decision Desk call proclaiming Harrell the winner of the Seattle mayoral election over the infamous DEWEY DEFEATS TRUMAN newspaper headline.

There are a couple of races in King County which _may_ still be in contention depending upon how many votes come in (but it's unlikely), and one race in King County which is LITERALLY TIED.

#kingcounty #seattle #Politics #caspol #caspolitics #cascadia #election
Kenmore City Council position 2 - Incumbent Joe Marshall receiving 49.8% to Tracy Banaszynski's 49.4%, a spread of 0.4%, or 31 votes. Lake Forest Park Proposition 1, no at 50.2%, yes at 59.8%, a spread of 25 votes. Skycomish School District 404 director Position 2: Sarah Bender at 49.7% and John Robinson at 49.7% with EXACTLY the same number of votes each. There is one (1) write-in vote who should be reconsidering their life choices at this time.

Notably, with latest vote tallies, her lead is 0.7% - over the 0.5% which would trigger an automatic recount.

New order is placed, DOJ requests an immediate stay, judge Immergut denies it. 14 days, like the first one.

Now we see if Trump and Miller and Vance et al violate this one.
