The top two finishers in the August primary will advance to the general election, regardless of party. The Democrats are also trying to retake an office that has been held by the GOP since 1965. Sam Wright of the Human Rights Party, Karen Murray of the Constitution Party and David Anderson, who didn’t list a party preference, are also on the ballot. Wyman, Thurston County’s auditor since 2001, said she wants to continue the work Reed has done. Reed was wide- ly praised for his oversight of the 2004 gubernatorial recounts in a highly charged political environment. ``Even though it was tough, he followed the law,’’ said Wyman, adding that she would run the office in a political- ly neutral way. ``We’ve seen states like Florida and Ohio where you had partisan secretaries of state that affected the integrity of the elections process.’’ One of Wyman’s goals would be to modernize the voter registration process, with an aim to make it more automated and strike a bal- ance between security and access.
