Primary votes were due by Tuesday this week. If you voted, there's good news. You helped pick people competing to run our state and nation. But, if you skipped voting, shame on you.
It's hard to think of any excuse for a citizen -- native or naturalized -- not to vote in King County of all places. In our county, we have some of the easiest, most voter-friendly, tamper-proof practices in the nation. It's easy to register: you can do it on line; you can register by mail, or you can sign up in person at election offices in Seattle and Renton.
Once registered, you'll get a voter's pamphlet with information about choices. And you'll get a ballot in the mail. Once you've voted, you can drop your ballot -- no stamp required -- in the nearest mailbox or go to one of the many convenient drop boxes. The county just added a dozen more.
A power outage of unknown origin struck West Seattle around 8:32 am on Monday, knocking out the juice for 16.928 City Light customers. This stretched from Alki through central West Seattle including the Junction. The southern end of it was SW Henderson Street. It came back on at 8:51 for a large number in the southern section of West Seattle, then others shortly thereafter.
This is the second power outage in the last 10 days. The first was caused by a failure in a relay, City Light said. No explanation for this outage was offered as yet. An estimate for restoration was noon.

West Seattle found itself in unfamiliar territory in San Bernardino, Calif. on Sunday.
Idaho came out and rallied for 11 runs in the bottom of the first inning against the Westsiders en route to a 16-6 win.
It was only the second loss in two years for the West Seattle contingent since it was formed for Little League all-star baseball action in 2017.
It won the Washington state tournament as 11 year olds that year before taking the 12 year old title this year and earning the trip to California for the Northwest Regional tournament.
Blake Taft had two hits and two RBI for the Westsiders, while Elijah Palmer had two hits and Parker Ely two RBI.
Mikes Gosztola drew a walk and also struck out three in relief on the mound.
West Seattle plays again at 7 p.m. Tuesday against the loser of Monday's winners bracket game between Alaska and Montana.

During the 2018 budget process, the Council adopted a restriction on spendingon the Delridge Multimodal Project. The proviso required Council approval for any SDOT spending beyond 10% design. I sponsored this spending restriction to begin use of the “stage-gating” process for large capital projects. Stage-gating requires regular check-ins with the Council on project status, funding, and public engagement before proceeding.
The Delridge Multimodal Corridor includes improvement to Delridge Avenue SW designed to increase transit speed and access, in coordination with King County’s planned transition to convert Bus 120 into the RapidRide H line in 2021.
