Update: Both duplicate Bob Fergusons withdraw from governors race

Both duplicate Bob Fergusons withdrew their name Monday afternoon from the ballot following a run against Attorney General (AG) Bob Ferguson. The Fergusons who dropped out were Robert Benjamin Ferguson from Graham and Robert Arthur Ferguson in Yakima.

It has been confirmed by the Secretary of State that only AG Bob Ferguson will be on the ballot.

The Attorney General’s campaign said it sent cease-and-desist letters to Robert Benjamin Ferguson and Robert Arthur Ferguson in an effort to remove their names from the August primary ballot. During a press conference Monday morning, AG Ferguson said the two letters were left on their porches.

In the letters, he explained the legal implications of deceptive election and asked that they withdraw their names before 5 p.m. Monday, the deadline to legally withdraw names from consideration.

Robert Benjamin Ferguson was the first to rescind his name. Little is known about him but according to a statement on his campaign website, Robert Benjamin Ferguson was in the U.S. Army for 20 years and was proud to defend his country.
