    The silver lining in all of this is that pressure should mount to shut down and scale back some shit programs that draw no support, but suck off the football revenues to exist. It won't happen overnight, but with rising costs, it will put a spotlight on useless programs that don't justify the dollars they currently get. That's what should happen. If it doesn't, and the losses mount, pressure will mount for a different AD. Pay attention to the shit show on upper campus at present. Legislators do, and UW has an uphill battle getting more state dollars when "students" are blocking traffic on I5, and AD's are losing millions.

    You realize you're talking about the same legislators who get their votes from the students blocking traffic, right?
    Not in the Senate. You realize Republicans run it because Conservative Dems flipped to their side, right?
    So 49% of the senate loves those traffic blocking protestor students. Point still stands.
    Seattle Democrats are pretty much hated outside of Seattle. In case you didn't know. I'm sure the Seattle Dems love those students and probably march along with them. But working class Everett and Tacoma military families hate their fucking guts.
    Yet the state somehow still elects Dem govs. Go figure.

    King County population density.

    It's a strategy and really not that hard to figure out

    Pierce is closer to 50/50 or 55/45. Not quite the liberal gash fest Seattle is. Fuck off.

    P.S. The million voters in the unofficial, redundant 2nd Democrat primary can't be wrong.

    Blames rise is "Welfare costs" rather than revenue, as the reason for her failure to balance the budget for the second year in a row.

    Way more dead voters in King County than all the other counties' dead voters combined.
