Good to see so many Pierce County reps, but if he wants to win here, he needs King County. (Seattle.)
East side is all GOP, but the 5 largest Puget Sound counties are not. The rest of us hate how it works here. My county is Republican and Puget, but small. (Skagit)
From your mouth to God’s ear.
Go Senator Cruz!
Nobody from Whatcom County.
There will be plenty of King County reps. I’m already working on becoming a delegate.
Working to retake what the GOPe has forsaken.
I got this in a tweet....great news!!
I am seriously considering going to Iowa in December for a week of volunteering.
we’ll see what happens
Great! I wish I could go, but I’ve got two kids in school.
