Initiative 1351 is just barely passing! Things could still change again, but last night's ballot count says the measure to reduce class sizes in Washington State now has 4,660 more "YES" votes than "NO" votes.

We're not saying the Stranger Election Control Board has big pull in Asotin and Spokane counties, but a "YES" vote is in fact what the SECB recommended. (Unlike "all" daily newspapers in Washington.)
