Man big debate last night. That weasely jerk. What an incoherent answer on abortion. I can’t believe anyone ever voted for him. And he looks old, older than I remember. Talking about the governor’s debate.
I already knew who I support. And I think a better Republican could actually score some hits on Ferguson. But not Reichert.
Anyway, please wash your hands right now and get vaccinated or boosted if you’re eligible.
Please join us tonight for an evening of electoral politics as the Seattle Chapter of Drinking Liberally gathers for a presidential debate-watching party.

– Imagine having to go to work with these jamooks after they racismed their way to wasting department time.
– The City Attorney’s office is trying to not go in front of a judge they don’t like. But the prosecution should not be able to pick and choose for make ’em up reasons.
– We have a second place for Lands Commission.
– A good ad opposing I-2117.
– Anyway, please wash your hands right now. And get vaccinated or boosted if you’re eligible.
You guys. We have light rail North of Seattle. I checked some of the stations out, and it’s great. Shoreline North already looks like it could have had a station for years. And more construction on the way. I’m very impressed. Also, walking distance to where I grew up, so it will be useful for me personally.
Lynnwood is less impressive, with a sea of parking. That makes some sense for the last stop, and the suburbs. A Godsend if you don’t have to fight I-5 traffic on your commute, but it’s tough to imagine it being a destination. There is Scriber Lake Park, that had some cool wetlands.
I look forward to having an excuse to check the other stops out.
Anyway, please wash your hands right now and get vaccinated or boosted if you’re eligible.

Sorry for the late post. In my defense I still have jet lag and I caught something nasty (COVID negative). Further in my defense, I am an idiot.
Anyway, I don’t know the ins and outs, but I am glad Seattle schools have rejected school resource officers. Police can have their place, but that place is not in schools outside of an emergency. It is good to acknowledge the harm having people who arrest people just…around.
And congratulations to the activists who made this happen. The City is not exactly easy for people who are skeptical about the role of police. Here’s hoping that counseling can help prevent violence.
Look, don’t get used to high quality open threads. I am sorry that Darryl has spoiled you. Back to nonsense like me rambling a bit about, holy shit, who came in second place for Lands Commission.
We have a top 2 primary, so the first and second place finishers go on to the general election. This year Lands Commission — the DNC is on and I’m writing about Lands Commission — Jaime Herrera Beutler, the former Republican Congresswoman, and probably Dave Upthegrove, Democratic member of the King County Council, are probably going through. But! Republican Sue Kuehl Pederson is within 51 votes. So there will be a hand recount.
I suspect 51 votes isn’t enough to overturn. Especially since most voters went for someone else. But if it’s this close, a hand recount is reasonable. I hope Republicans can refrain from the misconduct they pull in some contested elections.
But if you voted in this race and you haven’t checked yet, please confirm that your vote was counted.
Finally, if 52 votes change and this flips. Democrats will have had the most votes in the primary, but be unrepresented in the election. No primary system perfect, and it’s easy to find the problem with the one you have, but this seems bad. I suspect Democrats will do more to reign in candidates in the future, maybe back room deals to keep some people off the ballot.
Anyway, please wash your hands right now and get vaccinated or boosted if you’re eligible.
