Greene Trying to Raise Funds for County Seat

Mark Greene had previously said he would not run for King County Council, Position No. 9, if he could not raise $6,395.00 by May 13th, but now has dropped that number to just $3,395.00.  Greene's probable opponents in District 9 are incumbent Reagan Dunn and Shari Song.  Greene will make a decision on May 12th, 2013 on whether to run or not.

Update:  this blog has changed its name from Southern Northwest Commons to South King County Commons.

Bush and John McCain, respectively, in two recent presidential elections (2004 & 2008).  Smith is the same rightist Democrat (the kind of Democrats also known as "Blue Dogs") who benefitted from the other curious election of 2004, though unwittingly.
