Owens winning big in Supreme Court race

In a final, bitter defeat for the BIAW this year, results from the last contested race for Washington Supreme Court indicate that incumbent judge Susan Owens is rather handily dispatching her opponent, Stephen Johnson. (The other two races were decided in the September primary.

Owens is pulling nearly 59% of the vote, so I guess maybe voters know a little more about the court races than people give them credit for. Late polls had shown a large number of undecided voters, so it's probable the late breakers went for Owens.

Basically a great night in Washington state.
