WSDCC Wrap-up November 4, 2022

Posted on November 4, 2022

MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIR

Can you believe we are just 4 days out from Election Day? That means we have less than 100 hours left to do everything in our power to get out the Democratic vote statewide. 

Take a look at this article from The New York Times on Senator Murray’s race – it’s a stark reminder that the stakes are sky-high this election and we cannot afford to leave anything up to chance. Here’s what you can do to help give Senator Murray and every Democrat on the ballot their best shot at victory:

1)   DONATE – please support our last-minute GOTV push in top priority turf

2)   VOLUNTEER – help us make meaningful voter contacts and maximize turnout

3)   VOTE – if you haven’t, and encourage every Democrat you know to return their ballot ASAP

It’s absolutely crucial every Democrat does their part in these critical final days. Here’s a reminder of what we must accomplish on Election Day:

Support Sen. Patty Murray and Every Single Democratic Incumbent on the Ballot— We will fight to maintain our powerful, diverse majorities and keep passing progressive legislation for years to come.  

Protect Kim Schrier in WA-08, defend all of our Congressional incumbents, and do everything we can to push our new candidates over the edge to victory — 

Holding WA-08 is crucial to any conceivable path to keeping the U.S. House. Rep. Schrier is the only pro-choice female doctor in Congress, and we must make sure she can continue bringing powerful leadership to our party.

We also have an unprecedented opportunity to gain ground and potentially flip a longtime red seat in WA-03, where terrific Democrat Marie Gluesenkamp Perez is facing off against MAGA White Nationalist Joe Kent. We cannot sleep on this race and are fighting every day to help Marie over the finish line!

Not to mention the fact that we are fighting around the clock to defend all of our Terrific Democratic Congressional incumbents. We are taking nothing for granted this year and are working with all our might to make sure we don’t lose a single inch of ground in each of these critical races! 

Help WA Secretary of State Steve Hobbs win in November’s special election—Victory would mark the first time a Democrat has won this seat since the 1960s and could usher in a new era of Democratic secretaries of state in Washington, who will fight to expand the franchise — rather than intimidating voters in the name of bogus “election security” concerns. Steve is doing a terrific job and we need to do all we can to help him hold this seat!

And I also want to emphasize just how important it is that we stop GOP “also-ran” Brad Klippert’s insidious write-in campaign in its tracks. Klippert is a far-right MAGA Republican who would advocate to make our elections less free, fair, and transparent if he wins. Click the picture below to watch a joint statement from Governor Inslee and me emphasizing just how critical it is that we keep Klippert out of office! 

We must also protect our diverse and powerful majorities in Olympia and help every Democrat on the ballot — thanks to our work over the past five years we have been able to build Democratic power statewide and consistently pass meaningful, transformative policy for everyday Washingtonians. If we want to build an even more Democratic Washington in the years to come, we cannot yield a single inch this November. 

Protect our diverse and powerful majorities in Olympia and help every Democrat on the ballot — thanks to our work over the past five years we have been able to build Democratic power statewide and consistently pass meaningful, transformative policy for everyday Washingtonians. If we want to build an even more Democratic Washington in the years to come, we cannot yield a single inch this November. 

With extremely tight races forecasted in LDs 26, 30, 42, 44, and 47 to name just a few, we have our work cut out for us and can’t leave anything up to chance. Don’t forget, these races are known to come down to margins of 100 votes or less – so even one hour of door knocking can mean the difference between victory and defeat! 

I hope you believe me when I say we can’t let a single moment go to waste between now and Tuesday – but rest assured, we will continue our tireless, 24/7 efforts to turn out every single Democratic voter!

WORKING FOR WASHINGTON

Thank you for all you have done for Democrats over the past two years, and I hope you will dig deep in these critical final hours. Every day is Election Day from here on out and we need you to commit to one or more of the following three actions to help push our terrific candidates over the finish line in the closest races statewide:

1)     Please consider one more donation to help with last-minute GOTV pushes in key turf statewide. Any support you can provide will help us reach low-propensity, likely Democratic voters who have yet to turn in their ballots. The best way to donate is online here.

2)     Please sign up for one or more volunteer shifts – we are knocking on doors, making calls, and sending texts across Washington State every second until ballots are due! Please click here to sign up for one or more shifts in your area and help us reach every Democratic voter!

3)     And last but certainly not least, if you haven’t done so already, PLEASE VOTE (find a drop box near you using this link). If, for any reason, there is an issue with your ballot, we can help you correct it and get your ballot counted – call our voter hotline for any concerns at 206-309-VOTE. And please do make certain your friends and family VOTE too – again, we need every vote this cycle. Help us! Use social media, dinnertime conversations, coffee shop talks, whatever it takes to make certain folks know they need to vote!

Ask yourself this question, do you want to wake up on Nov. 9 wishing you had done more for Democrats? Some of our most important races could come down to just a few hundred votes and we can’t afford to waste a single minute or leave a single vote on the table.

Thank you for your commitment, and for standing by us in these critical final moments. 

DEMOCRATS IN THE NEWS

Patty Murray Faces Stiff Challenge in Senate Re-election Race

The five-term Washington senator is concerned about complacency among Democratic voters, who have come to regard her as a fixture who will always be there. She faces a Republican newcomer, Tiffany Smiley.

Op-ed: Democrats are better for our country and economy

Republicans often claim their party is better for the economy, but if we look at what Democratic majorities have done in just two short years – including recently passing the Inflation Reduction Act and the CHIPS and Science Act – it’s clear the Democratic party is the one setting our country and economy up for long-term success.

Let’s talk about School Boards. ❗Kennewick, Prosser, and Richland pay attention ❗School boards make important decisions about public schools. They hold significant power over children's rights, setting policies that determine curricula, extracurricular programs, student discipline, and how district funds are spent. Kennewick, Prosser, and Richland have some big decisions to make in this election. We’ve outlined some quick points on each candidate to help with your research but remember to read your Voters’ Pamphlet and to research each candidate (some of them have campaign websites that make their goals loud and clear). And don’t forget to VOTE! Even if you don’t have children your vote could help your neighbors, family members, or the kids who sell lemonade down the street every summer. Remember, the policies and decisions made by school boards can have long-lasting effects on your community and its future generations. ... See MoreSee Less

Richland Voters! If you were unaware, Donald Landsman passed away on August 31, 2025. First and foremost, we’d like to send our deepest condolences to the entire Landsman family and we are keeping them in our thoughts during this difficult time.Regarding the upcoming election, you might be wondering what will happen if Donald Landsman wins the Richland City Council Position 4 seat.Under Washington law, Landsman is on the ballot because he won the primary election (on August 5, 2025) and his campaign is active. If he wins the general election, his seat will remain vacant until the Richland City Council appoints a successor. The position will then appear on the 2026 ballot, allowing voters to elect a candidate to complete the remainder of the four-year term.In short, if you vote for Landsman you are not actually voting for him, you are voting for the Richland City Council to pick a temporary successor. If you aren’t comfortable with that then let’s take a closer look at the other candidate running for the Richland City Council Position 4 seat: John Maier.As a young adult, John Maier is motivated to change Richland city codes to facilitate more affordable housing, to represent Richland’s needs with Ben Franklin Transit for longer service hours and more capacity for school trips, and to motivate others, especially young people, to engage in government. Learn more about him in your Voters’ Pamphlet.Do your research, know your candidates, and VOTE! ... See MoreSee Less

    **In Zillah, we don’t put up with would-be kings. Come out and let your neighbors know they aren’t alone.

    Our peaceful movement is only getting bigger and stronger. “NO KINGS” is more than just a slogan—it’s the foundation our nation was built upon. Born in the streets, carried by millions in chants and on posters, it echoes from city blocks to rural town squares, uniting people across this country to fight dictatorship together.

    The president thinks his rule is absolute. But in America, we don’t have kings, and we won’t back down against chaos, corruption, and cruelty. Grow our movement and join us.

    A core principle behind all No Kings events is a commitment to nonviolent action. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values and to act lawfully at these events. Weapons of any kind, including those legally permitted, should not be brought to events.

    https://badgers.clubexpress.com/content.aspx?page_id=722&club_id=392306&emtid=292796115095

    Across Benton and Franklin Counties, the need is growing—but the resources aren’t. Government agencies and nonprofit organizations work tirelessly to provide shelter, food, addiction recovery, and mental health support. Yet even their combined efforts fall short of meeting the full scope of the crisis.
