Legislative, congressional races now set for August primary

The candidates are now set for the Aug. 17 primary and the general election on Nov. 2, featuring mostly legislative, congressional races and judicial races.

There are no Renton races this year, such as for mayor, City Council or school board.

All partisan races will appear on the primary ballot; non-partisan races appear on the primary ballot only when there are three or more candidates.

The last day to file for public office was Friday, although a candidate can still mount a write-in campaign.
