Costco Wholesale hasn’t already given up on the concept of promoting liquor in Washington. Having lost last year at the polls, the country’s third-largest retailer is back again with an additional initiative for voters to think about. Initiative 1183, which is most likely to be on the ballot this fall, resembles last year’s effort in that it might push the state out of the liquor business, making it to auction off its shops as well as distribution center. Retail stores – such as Costco – would promote spirits instead.
