I’m with Chris Mullick on this one.  The Washington Primary numbers don’t mean much.  There are some bright spots.  Peter Goldmark did pretty well in Spokane County in the sense of raw numbers.  Richard Wright had a good showing in a largely uncontested 4th district where many voters chose to vote republican over the empty choices for democrats on the ballot.  Especially true in Benton County where just one democratic primary race really mattered, County Coronor (A race we all wish Cope would have won), and an almost predictable turnout for Claude Oliver against Richard (Doc?) Hastings unfolding.   

But probably the most important take away from this primary is the Judicial races.  All three major seats are held.
