Will the democrats praise this bipartisanship??
This is weird. The same thing just happened in New York State.
If this happens in one more state I am going to assume there is a conspiracy. Maybe someone with deep pockets is buying off Democrats.
Let’s just hope the Republicans have the guts to push conservative budgeting principles.
Tom was once a Republican before switching to the dems 6 years ago. And Tim Sheldon is really an independant. Hstorically he votes with republicans about 40% of the time and many democrats despise him.
A friend of mine is a State Senator here in Washington. I donated and waved signs for his campaign. I will have to give him a call and find out how this will change the dynamics in this next session.
My brother is good friends with another Senator over on the coast and he is usually a good “go to” person for Republicans when they need his vote even though he is a Democrat. Very conservative socially but not so much fiscally. I wouldn’t be surprised if he switched parties when he decides to hang it up and not to run again. Truth is he is more aligned with Republican values but CANNOT get elected as a Republican in his county. Period.
