Listen "The Race for District 3: Leslie Lewallen"
Episode Synopsis
We’re headed back to Washington’s 3rd Congressional District – which includes the southwest corner of the state, from Long Beach to Mount Adams, and from Yelm down to Vancouver. It’s expected once again to be the site of one of the closest House races in the country – the Cook political report rates it as one of only 22 “tossup” contests in 2024. Democrat Marie Gluesenkamp Perez flipped the seat in 2022 by a slim margin: she defeated Republican Joe Kent by roughly 2600 votes. Kent is back vying for the seat, along with another Republican challenger: GUEST: Leslie Lewallen, a city councilmember in Camas, WA and a former King County Deputy Prosecutor.
