Appointed Metropolitan King County Council incumbent Rod Dembowski held a big lead over probable November opponent Naomi Wilson in returns from the Tuesday primary election released through Wednesday evening.
Dembowski, who has represented Council District 1 since he was appointed early this year after former Councilman Bob Ferguson resigned to become State Attorney General, leads primary votes counted through Wednesday with 70.22 percent of the vote to 23,55 percent for Wilson and 5.6 percent for candidate John Fray.
The November winner will serve the four-year term that begins at the end of the year and the last month of the term that Ferguson won in 2009.
The District includes Shoreline, Lake Forest Park and other parts of North King County.

Dembowski has all of that money from the Downtown special interests, big law firms, and developers, what do you expect, Evan? You, who likes to look at PDC contributions, should know all about that -- most of his contributions are from outside of District One.
The anonymous comment is correct. Dembowski's $125,000 (much from Seattle lawyers) compares to Wilson's $5,700.
