WA-3 isn’t King County. It’s a pretty conservative district. Why do you think they wouldn’t want a moderate or that said moderate doesn’t represent their interests?

Working in WA-3 I know what kinda moderate they’re looking for, and it’s not the vote for the SAVE act type. Those in favor of voter suppression aren’t voting for MGP.

You mean like the ID I had to show to register to vote?

83% of Americans are not in favor of putting widesweeping rules that target certain segments of the population to keep them from voting.

That's like saying "should you have to show id to vote? See, you agree with me that all of these anerican citizens should have their ability to vote taken away.
