As we implied in the previous post, N.P.R. will not concentrate as much on the Newcastle City Council in future posts, but will be branching out to other city and town councils in the 9th Congressional District. N.P.R. plans to visit at least once, before the 2014 Primary Election, all city or town councils (their meetings) in the 9th Congressional District, including Newcastle and Seattle.
It looks like I-522 is not doing as well as expected, but it's still too close to call as we write. If it fails, "Commons" is almost tempted to push our own labeling initiative as an Initiative to the People, but that's unlikely seeing that running a congressional campaign and an initiative at the same time may be a little too much on the plate. We think the primary backers of 522 made a mistake by not focusing on the potential health hazards of genetically engineered food as much as they could have.
As for the Congressional election in District 9, "Commons" will make a big deal about Adam Smith endorsing a Republican (John Drescher, a former backer of George W. Bush and John McCain) in a city council campaign, one who is opposing a diametrically opposite third party candidate that is to the left of Smith on economic issues, N.S.A. surveillance of law-abiding American citizens (it's out of control), and foreign affairs. Smith is a de facto "Blue Dog" Democrat.
