STATEWIDE Election Results for I-1163, I-1183 And More

So far, both big state measures are winning big in Washington  State...

According to the state election website, so far Initiative 1183, which would essentially privatize the liquor industry, and do away with liquor stores, is passing by just under a 60 percent margin.    Initiative 1163, the long term and health care workers plan that would set up new screening and other guidelines, is passing by a 66 percent margin.   That one is surprising since despite the state's economic downturn, and a billion dollar budget shortfall, it will cost taxpayers 80 million dollars plus.  But it is rolling along.
