Whatcom County at 55,869 counted

(Your going to have to look at this post in something besides IE.  My open office pastes do something weird in IE.)

Okay.  55,869 total ballots counted tonight with 20,000 noted as now left to count. Murray  and Larsen are starting to pull away in Whatcom County and Linville made up some serious ground as well. My math shows she still has a chance to pull this out. Melious can't catch a break though, still behind by roughly that same amount despite an extra 5K votes counted for that race.
So I find this interesting. This round of voting reflects a more liberal bias with increased turnout, but not for Melious.  This confuses me. Melious should be benefiting similarly, especially since her connections in the progressive 40th district should translate into more votes. Well, there are still 20,000 left to count. Maybe they contain lots of WWU ballots!  A look at the dense Bellingham precincts confirm that she is doing well there.
