Spokane County has about 9 percent of primary ballots in
State primary ballots are coming into the Spokane County elections office in a stream somewhere between a trickle and a torrent.
As of Monday's mail drop, elections officials had 27,684, or about 9.3 percent of the 298,011 mailed out this month.
A slightly higher percentage have been returned from the 4th and 6th Legislative Districts than the 3rd District. But because there are significantly fewer registered voters in the 3rd District -- about 15,000 fewer than either of the other two districts completely contained in Spokane County -- that means the 3rd lags in ballot returns.
