Xs and Os, King County edition
I'm glad I voted the Democrat ballot in the primary, just so I could have a voice in electing Bob Ferguson over what's-her-name. Come November, I'll vote against Ferguson, but that's a futile gesture. Here are some more futile (and almost-futile) vote choices for county elections:
King County Executive: David Irons, because he's not a Democrat.
King County Sheriff: Greg Schmidt, because Sims appointed Rahr.
Port of Seattle Commissioner 1: John Creighton, because the other guy is endorsed by the Sierra Club, Ron Sims, and the AFL-CIO.
Port of Seattle Commissioner 3: Llyod Hara, because the other guy is endorsed by multiple unions.
Port of Seattle Commissioner 4: Jack Jolley, even though he is endorsed by the Sierra Club, because the incumbent is endorsed by multiple unions and I don't like voting for incumbents if can help it.
King County Proposition 1: No, because it's a new tax and if it actually works, King County will become a magnet for military personnel looking for handouts.

Don't be so sure your vote is futile. Recent polls show that Irons and Sims are too close to call, and optimistic Republicans think David Irons can win.
He's one of the "almost-futile" votes, not the completely futile.
