Help with Washington State vote

[bigbearbear]

Hello! Wife and I moved to WA a few months ago, finally got our WA driver's licenses and also registered to vote as the DOL finally opened. Got our ballot today but we have no idea who to vote for, we both shoot and want to vote for politicians who supports our 2A rights. Can someone give me a list of pro gun rights politician we should vote for in WA?

Thanks.

All the people with an (R) next to there name. All the 2A Democrats are dead or too old to run for office.
At least it's true in SW Washington.

I'm voting for Culp for governor.

If I'm not familiar with the candidates, I just look at the progressive voters guide and do the opposite.

I see that sometimes, there are multiple candidates for the republican party, just pick anyone?

I went with Culp as well.

I like the Sheriff who was running too but in this environment I don't see him coming close even though I think he would do great.

I usually vote Republican straight across.

Any Dem in Oregon or Washington might as well run as a socialist

I read their statements and guess. There are some RINO's. As stated above, all Democrats might as well be socialist.

BTW found this niffty web site that basically tells you which are the NRA endorsed candidates and even if there are no endorsed one, they give them a grade.

NRA-PVF | Grades | Washington

The Official NRA Political Victory Fund (NRA-PVF) is NRA's political action committee. The NRA-PVF ranks political candidates - irrespective of party affiliation - based on voting records, and public statements.

Pretty useful for those, who like myself, are not familiar with politics of candidates.

I'm always disheartened when voting season come around and people don't seem to know who is the "best." Those who are voted into office affect us all, positively or negatively, and should be known to each of us before we vote. I cringe when someone says to me, "I voted for Soandso because I liked his/her name" or because he/she was attractive. It's no wonder we're headed down the tubes. We know more about what car/gun/food to buy than we do about our "representatives." Shame on us!

I had my names backwards.

I voted Tim Wyman not Culp.
I really like him, but as I stated I don't believe he has a fair shake with all the anti- Police BS going on

Well I can't find it now, but somewhere here is a video, like 2 hours long, where the Gov candidates do some Q and A.

I don't want to sound critical, but why would you vote for some who doesn't have a chance just because you like him. That's like betting on a horse that you like but cannot possibly win the race. Solidarity in politics wins races.

This is just the primary. Yes, its important but the race is among R's. When the general comes around, I'm sure we'll get together an vote for one candidate.

I support Tim Eyman for Washington gov. Pro gun and for less taxes. My kinda man. With our support he can win.

I came across it last night while trying to research the candidates. I didn't have time to watch the whole thing, but the only two that I felt would appeal to a broad range of voters were Eyman and Freed.

Agreed. I want anyone but Inslee. I think Freed is the one with the best chance, but his missionary work will hurt him. Culp is a single-issue candidate who is awful at public speaking and Eyman has a ton of baggage that will be used against him and he comes across as a used car salesman. Freed is good-looking and a bit too polished, and a bit of a moderate, but I think he will appeal to the widest range of voters.

Hopefully the idiots in King county go for someone even more radical than Inslee and fracture the leftist vote.
