Slog - Comments on Gregoire Tops Rossi http://slog.thestranger.com/2008/09/gregoire_tops_rossi Gregoire is up—but within the margin of error—in the latest SurveyUSA poll. Slop tipper Scott spotted this Gregoire yard sign in the window at Oasis "bubble tea" house at 6th and Weller in the International District....

That's why you don't see many here.

I'd rather they were spending their time in Rossi strongholds stumping for converts there.

So, quit pressuring them to satisfy your own pet project and let them get back to work where it makes the most difference. ;-)

the tv watching masses would be 100% voting for rossi if only he wasn't so unlikeable and evil.

More Rossi signs there, though, but that's not surprising at all...

The WA Dems' strategy should be to get Eastern WA to have just enough votes for Gregoire among the undecideds there.

And I have heard that Gregoire TV ads are like 10 to 1 on Eastern WA

FiveThirtyEight.com harshes on yard signs, to great comedic effect.

(No Obama or McCain ones either). I am now on a personal quest to find a Gregoire sign in my neighborhood. But, it's good news that there aren't any Rossi signs either...

They included 54% Seattle Metro respondents in their surveys.

Make it a more accurate representation of the state's population distribution and Gregoire's lead disappears as fast as our state's deficit is growing.

Neutrally speaking, of course.
