That’s where I live. Unfortunately, Spokane, Wenatchee, Ellensburg all showing similar trends. Mostly imports from Seattle area (Microsoft heirs particularly).
Make it mandatory that those with more than 1 year of University, cannot ever vote unless they serve in a combat zone. The happiest society would be one without any lawyers, and laws written simple enough for Elementary students to understand.
That would be a great start to a new State.
