11th District Senator: Final primary results
Results from the August 19th primary are official as of the last count and certification this past week. The State Senate race in the 11th District, which includes part of White Center (the rest is in the 34th), is an example of how the new “Top 2 Primary” worked — for the primary, there were three candidates, all Democrats; in the old-style primary, the top votegetter in each party would have advanced to the general – but now, it’s the top 2, whoever they are. In this one, it’s incumbent Sen. Margarita Prentice, whose final primary percentage was 48%, and Juan Martinez, whose final primary percentage was 28% (most of the rest of the votes went to a third Democrat who is now out of the running). You can find the full results of this and other races on the King County website; the general election is on November 4th.
