We believe Shannon is in the best position to defeat Dino Rossi (R) AND is best suited to hit the ground running as a congresswoman. And even better—our fellow Democratic organizations agree. The 11th, 25th, 30th, 31st, 41st, and 47th District Democrats have given Shannon their sole endorsements in this race, as have the King County Democrats and the National Organization for...

2017 Special Election is Key to Democrats Taking Back the State Senate

45th District Democrats Endorse Manka Dhingra for Senate Redmond, WA: On Wednesday, April 5, the membership of the 45th District Democrats unanimously voted to endorse Democrat Manka Dhingra for their State Senate seat, up for special election this fall.
