Primary day: Washington and Wyoming, preview and link to results |
It's voting day for folks in Washington and Wyoming. In the Evergreen State - that's Washington, in case you didn't know - Republican Dino Rossi appears set to face off against
Democratic incumbent Patty Murray in November. But he likely won't be winning today's primary contest. How can this be, you ask?
Washington has a mixed primary
where the top two vote-getters earn the right to advance to the general election. And though Rossi is running within the margin of error against Murray in recent polls, his general
election supporters will be divided among several GOP candidates in today's vote. Murry has Democratic candidates to deal with as well, but with names like Mike The Mover and
Michael "Goodspaceguy" Nelson, her base will be significantly less divided. So it should be Murry first, Rossi second and former Washington Redskin Clint Didier third.
In Wyoming, popular Democratic Governor Dave Freudenthal is term-limited this year. That's bad news for Democratic chances to hold the Governor's Mansion here.
Today's GOP primary will serve as the de facto deciding election in this race. Auditor Rita Meyer narrowly leads three other strong GOP candidates in the
field. For the Democrats, Leslie Peterson enjoys comfortable leads in recent polling and should win the nod.
As returns come in this evening, you can track them here.
Update: I incorrectly noted the GOP frontrunner in Wyoming's gubernatorial primary as "Matt Meyer." It is in fact Auditor Rita Meyer. Matt Mead, U.S.
attorney, is also in the running.
