Primaries this week filled in the final blanks in the slate of candidates running for governor in 11 states this November, including Washington, one of five states where the race is wide open because the incumbent governor isn't running in the general election.

In Tuesday's contests in New England, first-term Republican Govs. Jim Douglas of Vermont and Craig Benson of New Hampshire won their Sept. 14 primaries. Douglas, who ran uncontested in the primary, will face Democrat Peter Clavelle, the mayor of Burlington, Vt. Benson's challenger is New Hampshire businessman John Lynch, a Democrat. Both states have two-year terms.

In Washington, voters will choose between State Attorney General Christine Gregoire (D), who won Tuesday's primary against King County Executive Ron Sims, and Republican Dino Rossi, former state senator. Washington Gov. Gary Locke (D) opted not to seek re-election after two terms.

Govs. Judy Martz (R) of Montana and Bob Wise (D) of West Virginia likewise did not seek re-election.

Races in two other states Missouri and Utah also are up for grabs because the sitting governors there Govs. Bob Holden (D) and Olene Walker (R) -- were defeated in earlier rounds.
