Democratic candidate Marie Gluesenkamp Pérez is maintaining her lead over Trump-endorsed Republican candidate Joe Kent in Washington's Congressional District 3 race. If Pérez wins, she would be the first Democrat representing the district in 12 years.
“I think we’ve all just felt like politics is getting out of hand. There’s so much gridlock and nastiness,” Perez toldIf Pérez wins, she would be the first Democrat representing the district in 12 years.
“I think the vast majority of Republicans voted on game day right now,” Kent continued. “So we still believe that we have about 130,000 votes remaining to be counted. We’re optimistic.” Kent and Pérez became the final two candidates for the district after Republican U.S. Rep. Jaime Herrera Beutler failed to make it out of the primary.
“We didn’t get a red wave because the Republican establishment spent so much money fighting America first and fighting Trump-endorsed candidates that if you’re if you’re a candidate like me, you had to endure a hard primary,” Kent said. “But we also had to endure a lot of money coming from the Republican establishment. I had about somewhere between $12 to 13 million spent against me in the primary alone. And I’m not the only one.
Whether or not last night was a disappointment for the Republican Party, Kent is sticking with his endorser, Donald Trump, who is rumored to be close to announcing a campaign for president for the 2024 election.
