Close races in Northwest states show interesting fault lines in the electorate
Published 2 weeks, 5 days ago
Description
Washington has two neighboring states with very close races on very issues that show interesting fault lines in the electorate. In deep blue Oregon, Democratic Governor Tina Kotek is in an extremely tight race with her Republican opponent, Christine Drazan. And in deep red Idaho, a proposition to overturn the state’s abortion ban is bringing in a lot of money and interest.
Plus: a look at a successful write in campaign in Skagit County.
