YAKIMA, Wash. -- In a last-minute push for votes, supporters held placards and waved to passing motorists this morning at the corner of 40th and Summitview avenues.
Among them, the husband of incumbent Yakima City Councilwoman Sonia Rodriquez.
“She’s at the City Council budget meeting, so I’m out here with the sign,” said Pat True.
Rodriquez is being challenged by local radio personality Dave Ettl.
Nearby, Anita Golladay held a sign supporting incumbent Yakima City Councilman Bill Lover, who faces former Yakima school superintendent Ben Soria.
"I figured we had one last day," Golladay said.
Nearly 37 percent of the Yakima County ballots mailed out for today’s general election have been returned so far, according to the county Auditor’s Office, which predicts turnout at 53 percent.
