Updates on 1240
1240 - Still 600K votes still to count and it's down by just under 46K. So doable but the number crunching from the top counties where each side leads just don't support a win unless there is some big turn towards No.
Ditto on the race for Governor. The numbers are just not trending McKenna's way so I believe Inslee will take it. Frankly, I think that even though Inslee has been somewhat vague on funding issues, he is far less rigid than McKenna on education issues. And, the Legislature is going to have to do a lot of the heavy lifting of figuring out how to fund and enact the McCleary decision.
I do go on record here. Whether you like charters or not, McCleary should have been figured out and enacted BEFORE any vote on charters. We only muddy the waters by bringing them in at this point and that will be just one more issue that makes this a difficult process.
Good article from the Seattle Weekly's Nina Shapiro about the conversion portion of I-1240.
Hilariously the Yes side says the confusion comes from the movie, Won't Back Down. No, it doesn't because
