Colleen Melody, Mike Diaz, Debra Stephens up in Washington State Supreme Court contests; Theo Angelis in a competitive race
In every one of the 2026 Supreme Court contests we asked voters about at the end of May 2026, 60% or greater said they were not sure how they would vote. Among the respondents who did have opinions, incumbents did well, as did two appeals court judges who are running for open seats. One incumbent, recently appointed Justice Theo Angelis, appears to be more at risk of elimination than his peers, at least before the intensive voter contact phase of the campaign. Colleen Melody, Mike Diaz, Debra Stephens up in Washington State Supreme Court contests; Theo Angelis in a competitive race is a post from NPI's Cascadia Advocate, the journal of the Northwest Progressive Institute.

Book Review: “When Companies Run the Courts” sets off red alerts for the structural injustices we live among
Brendan Ballou's 2026 book critiques forced arbitration as a tool that undermines constitutional rights, shielding corporations from accountability while disenfranchising individuals. Through compelling case studies, he highlights the prevalence of one-sided arbitration agreements and the systemic bias in favor of powerful corporations.

The two faces of the beautiful game: World Cup fever lights up Seattle amid systemic, fiscal, and border friction
The World Cup is a deeply flawed spectacle, operating at the complex intersection of global politics, heavy public spending, and exclusive domestic systems. But standing on the banister at Pacific Place, watching the city explode in celebration as the whistle blows, you are reminded of why we care.

65% of Washington voters support an “away for the day” ban on mobile phones in all K‑12 public schools, with just 27% opposed
NPI's research finds that most voters are on board with Superintendent Chris Reykdal and Governor Bob Ferguson's plans to propose legislation to require all K-12 public schools to generally prohibit mobile device use during the school day, which experience suggests can reduce distractions and enhance student engagement even if it doesn't spur a big improvement in academic outcomes. 65% of Washington voters support an “away for the day” ban on mobile phones in all K‑12 public schools, with just 27% opposed is a post from NPI's Cascadia Advocate, the journal of the Northwest Progressive Institute.

Three months after Donald Trump resumed attacking Iran, 75% of Washington voters say his policies are increasing their prices
As gasoline and diesel costs surge following the widening war with Iran, NPI's spring 2026 Civic Heartbeat survey finds concern about Trump-driven price increases spreading across every region of Washington — and dividing the voters who backed his return to power.
