Five takeaways from the first WA attorney general debate

Washington’s three candidates for attorney general talked Trump, public safety and consumer protection during a debate Tuesday night.

The League of Women Voters of Washington and Benton and Franklin counties hosted a forum in Richland between former U.S. Attorney Nick Brown, state Sen. Manka Dhingra and Pasco Mayor Pete Serrano.

All are vying to run Washington’s top legal office. With less than two months before the Aug. 6 primary, Brown, a Democrat, appears to be the frontrunner, having raised nearly $1.2 million as of Tuesday. Dhingra, also a Democrat, is close behind, raising around $873,000, followed by Republican Serrano, who’s raised $162,600.

The top two candidates in the primary will advance to the general election in November.
