The Race for District 3: Marie Gluesenkamp Perez
Manage episode 429551422 series 3303135
Washington’s 3rd Congressional District covers the southwest corner of the state, from Long Beach to Mount Adams, and from Yelm down to Vancouver.
It’s also the home of one of the most fiercely contested congressional seats in the entire country.
In 2022, Republican challenger Joe Kent defeated incumbent Representative Jaime Herrera Beutler in the Primary, but lost to Democrat Marie Gluesenkamp Perez in the General election by roughly 2600 votes.
This time around, Gluesenkamp Perez is the incumbent. The way this primary race is shaping up, she will likely be facing either Kent or his Republican Party competition, Camas city council member Leslie Lewallen, in November.
This week, we’ve invited the leading candidates in the race on the show for interviews, to get a sense of their policy positions and vision for the future.
GUEST: Representative Marie Gluesenkamp Perez, a Democrat in her first term representing the 3rd district of Washington State.
