Line 34: ==Prop 1b== ''Proposition 1b'' (or "Prop 1b") calls for the mayor, the city attorney, and the council members from all of the districts to be selected bywith rules ''similar'' to a [[top-four primary]], ~~where~~but only two candidates are selected. Then, when the general election is held, the two candidates receiving the most transferred votes for the office in question would compete in a general election head-to-head.. The primary election wouldn't be eliminated, and the voting machines would need to be changed to handle ranked elections. To quote the King County Voters' Guide:<ref name=":0" />
