The Cook Political Report just downgraded Washington’s Governor’s race from “Likely Democrat” to “Lean Democrat.” This is not some fluke. This is a time for our undivided attention.
If MAGA extremist Dave Reichert wins, we would have a Trump ally at the highest office in our state.
With the presidential election so close, this means Donald Trump could have a willing ally in his Project 2025 plan to – amongst other dangerous policies – send federal troops into states like ours to force Red state policies on us.
We absolutely cannot allow Reichert to beat Democrats. If Reichert wins, MAGA extremists will have a direct through-line to destroy our state. Our LGBTQIA+ rights, reproductive freedoms, and environmental protections are under severe threat.
Adding to the urgency, we are still over $14,000 away from our end-of-quarter goal. We have to publicly report our fundraising numbers at the end of this quarter, and if we show that we missed our goal, it’s going to be bad news.
This rating change, coupled with grassroots donations falling behind in our public reports, will put us right in MAGA’s crosshairs.
Come November, we need to be able to say that we put everything on the line to defend our state from this REAL THREAT of a MAGA takeover. Please support the fight.
In solidarity,
Chair Shasti Conrad
