I hope people in this state are smart enough to realize any news paper endorsing that loser Kent has no credibility whatsoever

It’s got the more horrific articles in it. It blows my mind that people fall for this crap!

Gives off very strong Lewis county vibes

As a resident of Chehalis, I concur.

I want with all my heart for Joe Kent to lose, but I honestly don't see it happening here. The hatred for Democrats is just too strong. They would elect this white nationalist, election denying, MTG wannabe over any democrat no matter how much damage their vote does, even how much it damages them personally.

I love living in Lewis County, but the political atmosphere here is tough to deal with.

SW Washington is a strange place politically. Parts of it a try deep red, but the influx of people moving in from Oregon, California, and elsewhere, changing the voters. It is a competitive district.

It is very interesting, all my neighbors have either moved from Portland or from out of state. My neighbor has a sticker that says “I’ll tread where I want” with a mongoose eating a snake. So there is definitely a mix of folks from different backgrounds which I can truly appreciate especially being a minority. It’s a strange environment, there are parts of the county that I don’t even step foot in. If you drive to more rural areas (like where Kent resides), you’ll see the all black American flags flown. I have watched this area change the past few years I’ve been here and am hopeful that Marie will win (even though she is a bit too centrist for my liking).

Yeah, my parents live in Pahrump, NV, about an hour outside of Vegas. A few years back they actually elected a dead republican brothel owner over a live democrat. It's fucking insane.

Who cares. People will be voting the issues, not the individual. Crime, inflation, homeless are the issues. For Democrats it’s abortion.

Why you think Dems don’t care about inflation? They also pay the same price. Crime is also another priority, so is homelessness. On the other hand Republicans create new issue, abortion shouldn’t even be an issue, but they created it and I bet you they won’t do anything about the other issues either if Dems say they care about them as well.

The elected Dems don't care about inflation because it was caused by corporate greed, corporations pay them off with donations.

As a Democrat and Veteran, I care about the crumbling of democracy in USA and holding every single home grown terrorist coward, that attended January 6 accountable. So no, it’s not all about reproduction rights.
