Updated primary results were released by King County Elections shortly after 4 pm. Wednesday.
The King County Department of Elections and the Washington Secretary of State's Office have released updated results for several local primary races.
In Districts 45 and 48, ballots had been counted for approximately 23-24 percent of registered voters.
Just under 40 percent of ballots have arrived at the King County Elections office. That is below early projections of turnout, but would be higher than in recent past years, according to county records.
