There are 24 positions where there was a single unopposed candidate.  It is my interpretation of Washington statutes that all ballots not cast for the single candidate will have to be examined for write-ins, with the 2nd place finisher placed on the general election ballot.

There could be a good bit of potential hilarity in those districts. The top write-in could be anyone from Mickey Mouse to Dino Rossi to Oprah.

You all are talking (well, typing) as if Governor Gregoire is doomed to defeat (at least coming up with scenarios involving Dino Rossi as a possible rising star for GOP hopes in 2012).  Is she?  I haven't seen any new polls out, but the most recent one I thought I have seen has her leading by about 1% -basically a dead-heat. 

The latest poll that had Gregoire by 1 also had Obama by 16. If Rossi is really running 15 point ahead of McCain, Gregoire is indeed doomed. Plus every other tv ad is a Rossi ad. I think Rossi would be more credible in 2016 if he wins reelection.

Really? I think Gregoire is more like to win under Obama +10 as opposed to Obama +15.

Do explain.

Why don't people like the Walla Walla sweet onion? It tastes wonderful...

Consider it a friendly state-to-state sweet onion rivaly.

Still don't understand how CDPs work in light of the one-person CDP (Laurier) in Ferry County they made.  It's populated by a white-Asian person we're going to get to know lots of unnecessary information about.  Thanks Census!

I'm laughing out loud at this.

Also, on the topic of weird CDP names, nothing has amused me more than Airport Road Addition, Texas.

Does anybody have info about Lisa Brown's possible run for Lt. Governor? It was mentioned in the Seattle Times, but that's the only place I've seen it mentioned thus far.

Primary challenger for Owen or is he not running again?

I guess Washington doesn't have any laws on residency, or what?
