Here's a summary of all districts' aggregate votes on social housing (#YesOnI135).

Lastly, the newly revised District 7 also voted #YesOnI135 in aggregate, although had Magnolia remained a part of the district, it likely would have ended up a net "no". #waelex

In the northern District 5, coastal precincts opposed the social housing measure, but precincts closer to I-5 voted #YesOnI135. (Due to a slight irregularity in the precinct shapefile, a few districts south of the D5 boundary are in this view.) #waelex

In District 4, the contrast between neighborhoods was on show: Wallingford skewed #YesOnI135, while eastern neighborhoods including Laurelhurst and Sand Point went "no". #waelex

District 3 strongly supported #YesOnI135 in the densely populated centers of Capitol Hill and the Central District, with the strongest bastion of "no" in the Broadmoor and the shore of Lake Washington. #waelex

Most precincts in District 2, in southern Seattle, voted #YesOnI135; the measure led nearly 2:1 in the final tally. #waelex

Many precincts went "no" in western District 1, but thanks to support in densely-populated areas, #YesOnI135 led slightly in the district overall. #waelex

First, my home district, District 6, which now includes much of Magnolia. #waelex
