Tuesday was the deadline for ballots to be postmarked in the Washington’s top two primary election. Most local offices had only two candidates, and updated counts will be issued later Wednesday. There were seven running for Skamania County Commission District 2, with Rob Farris at 217 votes after last night’s count and Mary Repar at 155. Joshua Good is third 117, with four others all polling less than one hundred votes. In the Congressional races, 4th District incumbent Dan Newhouse was trailing another Republican, Jerrod Sessler, by over 3,000 votes, but had a similar lead over a third Republican, Tiffany Smiley, to get on the November ballot. Incumbent Democrat Marie Glusenkamp Perez and Republican Joe Kent were easily advancing in the 3rd Congressional District. In Washington State House District 17 for position 2, Democrat Terri Niles had over 48 percent of the vote to lead, while David Stuebe had a nearly 600 vote lead for second over fellow Republican Hannah Joy. In House District 14, for position 1, Democrat Chelsea Dimas topped the count with about 38 percent of the vote, while Gloria Mendoza had a 127 vote lead over the other Republican in the race, Andy Kallinen. The candidates for position 2 in District 14 are determined, with Republican Deb Manjarrez and Democrat Ana Ruiz Kennedy easily outpacing Eddie Perez, who listed no party preference. Home Valley Water District’s Maintenance and Capital Improvement Levy was being approved 45 to 28.
