Seattle's mayoral race will end up quite close; that could make 'challenged' ballots that had some issue key to resolving the race. WA allows voters to "cure" their ballot, i.e. come in and explain or fix issues like forgetting a signature. (Not all states allow this.) Info from the county:

incandescently fucking mad about this SNAP payment motion. what the fuck is wrong with these people, honestly

🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

everybody involved in this fuck-ass decision should choke on a luger

Oh come on, you know him. He's the one who likes all our pretty songs? Sings along? Shoots his gun? Kinda slow on the uptake?

Seattle mayoral daily update: Wilson takes 60.0% of a batch of 55,951. She needed to get 59.4%. With just over 50,000 votes outstanding based on the current estimate, she needs 58.3%. Up to you how to interpret this, but based on historical Monday vote drops, I'd very much rather be Katie Wilson

why won’t she just SAY what she wants me to DO. [hears response] BE SERIOUS

Esplen. Saginaw Street. If you misplaced your fully loaded AK-47 somewhere outside, the cops found it in someone's yard.

johnson has kept the house away for an entirely unprecedented length of time and has taken the genuinely radical position of not seating a duly elected rep to avoid a vote, it's absolutely fair to assume to that he's hiding something awful, it's his responsibility to prove otherwise, not ours

Somewhere a Walton is opening a crypt and intoning the darkest of spells. A monster is stirring under a Piggly Wiggly. It is hungry and focused on revenge. Albertson's has unleashed mercenaries from a hellish place. And Whole Foods is sending a special package

personally i'm holding my fire on yelling at schumer for a dumbfuck starting point until i see where he goes next. the actual proposal is kind of moot point if the deal gets rejected within the duration of one nist standard sitcom episode, y'know? at this point, there's no harm in asking for more.

The three genders: IRT BMT IND

the funniest part is that in a normal government, this would be a bog standard, easy compromise for republicans, who want the subsidies extended, too, but they're all terrified of the elderly tariff otaku, and johnson and thune are both extremely weak leaders in thrall to their most insane members

hey how quickly did the GOP reject that proposal, actually? lmao.

my hot take here is that i simply cannot get excited about the opening of the federal way extension. who cares. that's the suburbs. gimme the train across the lake.

seattle urbanism subtweet: there’s some insane takes out there but part of me wishes the city proper had more ability to build and operate transit options that interlink with KC Metro and ST. the streetcar could be so much better, for example…

Head's up from King County Elections on today's ballot drop: "We are planning to add about 100,000 ballots to the counts (countywide) in today’s results update around 4 pm. We expect about half of those to be Seattle ballots."

The note is pretty good evidence that the sandwich guy jurors carefully evaluated the legal merits of the DOJ’s case and weren’t collectively engaged in a nullification exercise.
