Her entire campaign is almost centered around blaming a U.S. Senator for crime in Seattle.

She is from Pasco and currently lives in Pasco. Went to college at Whitworth University in Spokane. She grew up on a farm and went to a very Christian school for nursing. Yet she has the audacity to act like she knows anything about Seattle or its problems. Fuck you Smiley. You’re full of shit. If you want to run for statewide office and you’re going to target the state’s biggest city and economic hub, you’re not going to win. A good Washington state senator would try to unify the state instead of divide it.

Why does someone who lives in Pasco care about crime in Seattle? Because they want to score vain political points.

I thought her entire campaign was "my husband lost an eye in the war".

The whole state isn’t just Seattle and people need to stop acting like it is.

Edit: A bunch of downvotes and typical replies. Shocking.

The only people acting that way are conservatives.

I feel like most conservative politicians haven't even set foot in Seattle with how much they exaggerate.

Absolutely. Or their one experience in the city is drinking downtown before a Seahawks game, and it's their first time seeing folks who are unsheltered.

I was at a rural meeting & 1 old gent said he “packs heat” for any visit to Seattle, Tacoma or Olympia (Lacey is OK tho)

What's the alternative, when that's what she's attacking in her ads? Should we take a good hard look at the perfection that Pasco is and see if we can apply that to the rest of the state? Oh wait, she's NEVER been in public office before, so we have NOTHING to compare to. Quite convenient. She's just looking to take advantage of the right and grift as much as she can off it, like her compatriots. It's transparent...but it's not going to fly in Washington. She should move to Florida or Texas...she'd fit right in.

Then why is Smiley so obsessed with it?

Edit in response to your edit - what the fuck kind of response did you expect with such a dumb comment?
