As a resident of Chehalis, I concur.

I want with all my heart for Joe Kent to lose, but I honestly don't see it happening here. The hatred for Democrats is just too strong. They would elect this white nationalist, election denying, MTG wannabe over any democrat no matter how much damage their vote does, even how much it damages them personally.

I love living in Lewis County, but the political atmosphere here is tough to deal with.

SW Washington is a strange place politically. Parts of it a try deep red, but the influx of people moving in from Oregon, California, and elsewhere, changing the voters. It is a competitive district.

It is very interesting, all my neighbors have either moved from Portland or from out of state. My neighbor has a sticker that says “I’ll tread where I want” with a mongoose eating a snake. So there is definitely a mix of folks from different backgrounds which I can truly appreciate especially being a minority. It’s a strange environment, there are parts of the county that I don’t even step foot in. If you drive to more rural areas (like where Kent resides), you’ll see the all black American flags flown. I have watched this area change the past few years I’ve been here and am hopeful that Marie will win (even though she is a bit too centrist for my liking).

Yeah, my parents live in Pahrump, NV, about an hour outside of Vegas. A few years back they actually elected a dead republican brothel owner over a live democrat. It's fucking insane.

Hi from Ethel! Strong agree. Beautiful area, batshit politics.
