This is a Seattle problem; not Washington State. No sign of this kind of stuff (Marxist city government) where I live in eastern Washington.
I’m over in Kitsap county. Like your area, around here very few give a hoot about Seattle. Inslee has so many pissed off he’s probably gone in Nov, but they’ll recount their way to a win just like they did with Rossi.
Either way though we’re close enough that Seattle’s insanity will likely impact us, so we’re seriously considering a move.
