General election final per-precinct election data are now available for King County. Here's the data for the county's Prosecuting Attorney. Leesa Manion won virtually all of Seattle, with less support in rural areas and the posher parts of the Eastside.

Some notes:
• There are only two per-precinct data drops: one from election night and one, about a week from now, based on final data.

Lastly, in a viz that shows the dangers of filled maps for election results, Democratic challenger Chris Vance captured the more densely-populated western precincts in the 31st Legislative District but still trailed incumbent Phil Fortunato on Election Night.

In yet another voting-about-voting question, King County Charter Amendment No. 1 proposed moving certain county officials' elections from odd to even years. "Yes" led in most of the county.

In the second Seattle voting-related question, voters were asked to choose between approval voting (1A) or ranked-choice voting (1B). In virtually all of the city, ranked-choice led on Election Night.

Seattle voters were given a two-part question: do you want to change the voting process from "vote for one candidate" to "vote for multiple candidates"? On this question, "no" had a slim lead on Election Night.

The King County Prosecuting Attorney is nominally a nonpartisan office, although thanks to partisan endorsements and an exiting incumbent, the race was closer than most D-vs-R contests are in the county.
