We have Kelli Linville and Doug Ericksen voting against democracy and for the iron grip of the two political parties on our election process. Shame on them.

Quall and Morris voted for the 'Top 2' primary process. We thank them - sort of. We should expect they would vote for it. They should explain why they did not speak out loudly for democracy.

Well, the WA State legislative website still does not inform us of the vote. Normal screwups in Olympia. Maybe later today. I learned from a staff person in Oly. This issue will have legs. Locke will probably sign it - and hope the courts strike it down. The House even put in a whole subsection for the 'Montana Primary' system to go into law when the courts strike down democracy. How charming.

We citizens may have to raise the money ourselves - and an attorney or two - to defend the 'Top 2' primary process. Our elected officials in Olympia have shown no excitement for democracy. Can we expect any better from Christine G?
