'As goes King County, so goes the state:' WA turns into deeper blue state after 2024 election

Governor Jay Inslee — the state’s most powerful Democrat — proudly proclaimed yesterday that all statewide offices are now held by Democrats.

He claimed the last time that happened was when Franklin Delano Roosevelt (FDR) was president 80-something years ago.

That prompted our Matt Markovich to dig up a familiar tune – to explain why our state is turning from blue to dark blue.

“The bluest skies you’ve ever seen are in Seattle,” Perry Como sang.
