On Other Blogs Today: Didier and Akers on the Campaign Trail. Together.
1. Jerry Cornfield at the Everett Herald
politics blog covers the fact that Paul Akers and Clint Didier are hitting the trail together.
There's also audio from a Rossi radio ad, and Cornfield asks: Is he downplaying his Republican party affiliation again?
2. Schmudget (Josh in the background: "That's Yiddish for budget! put that in there...") has an analysis of I-1107, the repeal of candy and soda/bottled water taxes. Their analysis: "Without these enhancements, policymakers would have been forced to make unacceptably deep cuts in fundamental public services like health care and education."
3. The Washington Policy Watch Blog has a fantastic rundown of state income taxes across the nation with regard to I-1098. If it passes, we'll still be below the median for higher-earners' tax rate.
4. The Seattle P-I's Strange Bedfellows blog has a news flash for tunnel haters: If the tunnel goes away, the $2.8 billion dollars set aside for it might get divided up and spent elsewhere too.
