AP Decision Notes: What to expect in Washington state's primaries

Five months after holding its presidential primaries, Washington state is looking further down the ticket to select candidates to compete for federal and state offices in November. A handful of retirements have injected some excitement into Tuesday's primaries for the left-leaning state. Most notable among the retirements are those of third-term Democratic Gov. Jay Inslee, Democratic Rep. Derek Kilmer and Republican Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers. The governorship in particular has attracted a lot of interest, with 28 candidates competing.
