Oh, voter. You are going to be asked to watch so many races in the coming months.

There is, of course, the presidential race, which is sucking the air out of the room. There's also governor, attorney general, congressional seats, state house representatives, land’s commissioner, and, because you live in the great state of Washington, citizen’s initiatives.

And, if you don’t have enough to think about, there is a new initiative likely headed to your ballot. 

It will roll back the state’s efforts to move away from this fossil fuel. And it would ban any proposed bans on natural gas.
