Voters passing Sound Transit Proposition 1

Voters tonight are giving Sound Transit a new lease on life by overwhelmingly approving Proposition 1, which would expand light rail in three directions (to Redmond, Lynnwood, and Federal Way) - and expand ST Express bus service.

In King County, the vote is:

APPROVED - 57765: 61.88%
REJECTED - 35586: 38.12%

In Snohomish County, the vote is:

APPROVED - 51,119: 55.44%
REJECTED - 41,086: 44.56%

Results don't appear to be available for Pierce County yet.

Note that these are very early returns. Things may change. We expect the final tally to be much, much closer than this.
