    2/3 of Washington State is very rural. Like, drive 65 miles through wheat fields without seeing a house rural. They also have mountains.

      Of course. The primary function of any senate in the US is to give power to land rather than to people.

      I-5 corridor is very blue, then you’ve got deer hunting backwoods rednecks on the peninsula to the west and rural farmers to the east on the other side of the mountains

        Even around the interstate you’ve got plenty of people flying flags on their houses and their trucks. It’s funny, the fascists where I live have abandoned their Trump 2024 flags for No step on snek. I guess they figure he doesn’t trigger the libs as much with one foot in a jail cell. Or maybe against all odds they grew a sense of shame.
