The fifth round of results were released for Tuesday’s (Aug. 3, 2021) Primary Election, and these returns for the Burien City Council race show continued minor increases for some candidates.

As more votes are counted, ballots from younger voters – who often vote later – are increasing and being reflected in the totals.
