How’s the election going so far? From our news partners at The Seattle Times:
Despite Seattle’s hotly debated tunnel referendum and candidate races around King County, returned primary ballots are coming in more slowly than elections officials anticipated. They earlier had projected countywide turnout of 52 percent.
As of Monday night, the county had received about 211,000 of the 1.1 million ballots sent out, or 19 percent.
