Does King County have anything besides Seattle that can at least narrow the gap so the Republican doesn't get totally killed, like some swing suburbs? I think Gorton actually won King County in 1980, but of course that was a long time ago.

King County hadn't gone fully to the dark side yet in 1980, but it's all gone now... sadly. :-(

Gorton WOULD HAVE won reelection had it not been for the LP. The Libertarian Party set out to actively defeat Gorton to demonstrate that the GOP in Washington must appease them or else. They handed the election to Cantwell then were here on FR hu-yahing and high fiving like it was some kind of victory.

Last time around they were successful in handing the Gubernatorial election to the Democrats...against a solidly Christian, family man who ran on the GOP ticket.

The good old WA LP...meet our demands or we'll spoil it for everyone.
