2012 Poll Sees "Momentum" for Inslee Going Into Tomorrow's Primary. However...
Posted by Eli Sanders on Mon, Aug 6, 2012 at 10:32 AM
A KING 5 poll released Friday evening details the good new for Team Inslee:
However, what Goldy said two weeks ago about a different good poll for Inslee applies to this new poll, too:
This was a poll of likely voters, not likely primary voters. Primary voters comprise a much smaller, more selective, and more conservative electorate. So when McKenna comes out on top in August, as he likely will, don't be tempted to read this as some sort of sudden swing back in the Republican's direction.
Two different likely voter models. Two different results.

Voter turnout for this primary is the lowest it's been in years. Whoever does vote will therefore have a disproportionately high impact.
Your ballots must be postmarked by tomorrow to be valid, or dropped off at an Elections Board drop box no later than 8 PM tomorrow. Please get them in tonight.
