Washington’s battleground 3rd District is a high priority for both parties.
The district went for President Trump in 2024 while reelecting moderate Democrat Marie Gluesenkamp Perez.

successfully fended off primary challengers on Tuesday to advance to the November ballot.
Republican Braun, a retired Navy captain, won the other sp…

Ice-cold take: a tenant who can afford Bulimba’s median $1225/week house rent isn’t in #housing distress, let alone one who can afford the median $2.3 million purchase price.
How about building dwellings for people genuinely priced out of adequate housing? Why not actually address #WealthInequality

Remember when Xbox tried to move away from physical media to reduce distribution costs during the 2013 Xbox One launch?
And Sony pissed all over Microsoft for it? 🤔

Scott Wiener,
a gay Jewish state senator and trans rights advocate who is currently the frontrunner in the race to replace the longtime representative Nancy Pelosi in California’s 11th district,

“They were so physically and…

Michigan is not the only state with primaries on Tuesday.
In Missouri, voters will weigh whether to nominate former US representative Cori Bush, who is running to return to the chamber against Wesley Bell in a race punctuated by the war in Gaza and outside spending by pro-Israel groups.
And in Washington state, voters will decide which two candidates to elevate in the third congressional district, where blue-dog Democratic representative Marie Gluesenkamp Perez is seeking re-elec…
