Early Idaho primary results show Republican incumbents ahead, with several legislative races still tight
Early Idaho primary election results show Republican incumbents doing well (unlike Thomas Massie in Kentucky), with Governor Brad Little securing approximately 60% of the initial vote. On the Democratic side, Terri Pickens looks like the apparent gubernatorial nominee. A number of legislative races remain competitive, with key contests still too close to call. Early Idaho primary results show Republican incumbents ahead, with several legislative races still tight is a post from NPI's Cascadia Advocate, the journal of the Northwest Progressive Institute.

Republican voters vanquish more of Donald Trump’s marks in Kentucky, Georgia primaries
Thomas Massie and Brad Raffensperger are the latest Republicans to lose in Republican primaries after being targeted by Donald Trump for defeat. The base's eagerness to give Trump what he wants demonstrates that the party continues to function more like a cult than a political party despite Trump's declining popularity.

Washington State’s budget has been shrinking, not growing, despite statements to the contrary by former elected officials
Former elected officials like Governor Chris Gregoire, radio personalities like Charlie Harger, and editorial writers at The Seattle Times continue to irresponsibly compare the state budget between eras using absolute dollars, which doesn't allow for a proper apples-to-apples examination. In relative terms — the only terms worth using for comparisons — the state budget has gotten smaller, even with recent tax and fee increases adopted by the people's elected representatives.

Representative Emily Randall’s bipartisan Ferries Act would provide a critical boost to maritime transportation across the U.S.
The congresswoman and Governor Bob Ferguson are pushing for expanded federal investments in ferries. The legislation they're calling on Congress to pass would modernize aging maritime infrastructure, increase ferry grant funding, support shipyard jobs, and move several ferry programs from temporary pilot status into permanent federal transportation law.
