Uncontested races in our jurisdiction are as follows: King County Superior Court Judges (4 total) and Port of Seattle Commissioners (3 total). Our Primary Election endorsements will carry through to the General Election unless an endorsed candidate does not proceed to the General Election. In that case that office may be reconsidered for endorsement before the General Election.
