This is the final weekend before the Nov. 7 City Council election on Tuesday.
Voting has been underway since Oct. 20. We’re reposting links to endorsements, recommendations, candidate questionnaires and evaluations by various groups.
Sammamish Comment will be working Election Night, posting initial results as soon as possible after King County Elections posts (advertised for about 8:15pm, but it’s not unusual to be late).
The County updates the results daily, except weekends and Thanksgiving. So will The Comment, as long as any results are too close to call. We will post the final results Nov. 28 and follow up with a precinct analysis.
Typically, Election Night results are within a point or two of the final tally. Also typically, the vote spreads are enough to project winners on Election Night.
Ballots for the Nov. 7 election arrive this week.
Sammamish citizens will be voting for four positions for City Council, one for the King County Council District 3 and a special election for the balance of the State Senator for the 45th Legislative District.
Sammamish Comment published candidate questionnaires for City Council during the primary and general election periods.
Below are links to the general election questionnaires, which have links to the primary questionnaires and to ones submitted to Sammamish Friends.

General Questions
King County filed a new lawsuit June 14 against Sammamish over the long-running legal battle over development of the East Lake Sammamish Trail.
This time, it’s over Sammamish’s threat to block construction at two trail/road intersections in the Southern portion of the trail that is now under construction.
Sammamish wants stop signs installed for the trail users. The County wants stop signs installed for the vehicular traffic.
