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.
Gluesenkamp Perez, a centrist who was first elected narrowly in 2022 and has made a name for herself by sometimes breaking with her party,
