    Silly Sammich, these are young people. There's no way they would have their own house.

    Even easier, their dad's probably the landlord and would have them evicted.

    It looks like Heck (D vs. D) for Lt. Gov

    Wyman (R) maybe by a hair for Sec. of State... it is quite close.

    Davidson (R), the only other incumbant R here, is losing Treasurer to Pellicciotti (D) by ~11%, which is relatively small for WA for D vs. R races.

    Every other Democrat is winning their races here.

    The sex ed proposition is winning by quite a lot.

    For context, Davidson won in 2016 because of our stupid jungle primary system. The primary had 3 Democratic candidates, but only 2 Republican candidates. Even though the Democratic candidates, as a group, had a higher percentage of the vote, splitting the vote 3 ways instead of 2 meant that both Republican candidates went on to the general.

Staying with an awesome, progressive family, admist the fucking Mike Pence is our hero , Children of the Corn type bullshit, that the blue collar class eats up in my fucking home state. Apologies for Indiana's dumbassery, once again!

    Just too fucking sad that they Went R again, and so wlll have to go to Michigan and Illinois, and uncomfortably risk getting harassed by the Indiana State Police (akin to Utah State Police keeping tabs on Colorado, Nevada, and other Legalized, out of staters driving through.) and wait until 2024 to get legalized majuriana. Although I was pleasantly surprised, that Northwest Indiana, and Indianapolis (basically the metro areas of Indiana.) were 70% following mask rules, but halfassing when people only fucking covered their mouths (both workers and customers.) and leaving their noses exposed. Add the fact that Illinoisans, who are being spiteful babies, jump across state lines this past weekend to enjoy "TRU-FREEDUM tm". At the "Crossroads of America" (* pukes*) Oh look, another how many fucking cases in the Great Lakes States this upcoming week?"

    I am fucking, so ever grateful to be an ex Native of Indiana, and had the opportunity to get out and employeed in the PNW since 2006. I know alot of my relatives, friends, and many of this board's users can relate, as they have similar experiences. But I am glad to be resident of Washington. I know, I know, Eastern Washington's affinity to want to be like my home state of Indiana, minus the weed being the devil, hurr durr! Overall, I'm glad Governer Inslee set the example ,on how to be Presidential and a leader admist crisis.

    Now excuse me, while I plan an Apology gift to Preacher, for this evenings fuckery on Election night, via my home state in the Midwest.

    And Now I know how Mcdermott feels.

    Hi-5 fellow Indiana to Eastern Washington transplant. Tho I didn't really have much of a say in it since we moved when I was in high school. There were definitely some nice things about Indiana that I miss in Eastern Washington, namely the forests, the rain, and the snow. It's too open and empty out here, lol, I need to be surrounded by forest.

    Washington voted Wyman in, not a generic Republican. I think there's a sense that Secretary of State is a non-political office that's just in charge of the technical aspects of running an election, and Wyman hasn't used her position for evil. (That I know of.) Combine that with the incumbency advantage and a somewhat weak challenger and she's getting reelected. I think the Secretary of State position is more political than it first appears, and a generic Democrat would be more proactive in expanding the number of people who vote, but I'm reasonably confident that Wyman isn't about to start applying the standard Republican dirty tricks here.

    Decided to check out how my county voted in state and local stuff. Not a lot of surprises, since the electorate runs roughly 75-25 R-D. But the Lt. Gov race is... interesting

    khb2eo9vqain.jpeg

    1/3 of county votes for this race were write-ins. (Presumably because those people couldn’t bring themselves to pick a Dem) I’d love to see the details on that one

    Esit: looking at the statewide results for this, approximately 20% of votes were write-ins for this race. So we have a baseline for “how many people in this state would rather waste votes on a write-in than vote for a Democrat”

    I saw something going around on Facebook where people were encouraging WA republicans to write-in Joshua Freed. They figured they'd have a chance since the democrat vote would be split.

    I voted for both Wyman and Davidson, because before yesterday I was an independant hoping that the Republicans would lose hard, find their soul, and maybe these two non-trumpist might influence it back into objective reality with the rest of us. Also, incumbency during a volatile year, I didn't want to change what wasn't broken. And I just preferred splitting my ticket.

    But given how this election has gone, I deeply regret it. They're both decent at their jobs, but they really should have changed parties by now. I probably won't vote for a Republican again, not until their party changes dramatically, which I've lost all hope of that happening any time soon.

    I also officially joined the 34th District Democratic Party today.

    Their candidate for Superintendent of Public Instruction ran on “vote for me if you want to repeal” and pulled a lot better than the measure itself, though not enough to win.

    I think the Dems retain the state House (or whatever we call it) but I’m not sure about the senate

    I counted 13-13 split among 26 races and I’m not sure if that is the full state senate or not
