I have to echo Stephanie’s sentiment about feeling exhausted. My shoulders are literally sore from the stress of thinking about this whole affair, and my mind fried by too many attack ads. However, for those of you who are in a district that is uncompetitive, or thinking that since the Presidential election is decided in Washington there is no point in voting -- think again.
Recent polls show that the race for Governor is indeed tightening. Rossi who has been described by the Wall Street Journal as a "state-level star," was featured along with national newcomers like Democrat Barack Obama. The Seattle Times (endorsing virtually every other democrat save McKenna) gave the nod to Rossi. In other words, the battle for the Washington Governor’s mansion is far from over.
The impact the governor could have on our lives is potentially far greater than the presidency: how much we pay at the pump, sales tax, higher education, class room size, gun control, the future of Boeing and Microsoft will all be affected by our choice for governor.
Get out and vote.
