@andy Yeah, it’s what I expected, but still really disappointing.

@andy I'm in Pierce county and voted down on 638. We have more work to do here locally.

@andy Really disappointing to see Pierce and Snohomish currently leaning towards Yes on that one :(

@liam the way the other initiatives are tanking but that one is passing doesn't make me feel great about a turn around. But I know that ballots here are a Marathon not a sprint.

@andy Totally. But the 50k vote difference in Pierce and 30k in Snohomish definitely don't make me feel better.

@liam @andy
I hate that being cruel to trans kids is an electoral winner.
My hope is that the legislature massages it to make it less awful until it can be reversed.
