The other Washington takes note of the Upper Left

In a review of competetive US House races, the Washington Post makes favorable mention of the 8th District of the State of Washington...

"Democrats are also well positioned in Washington state's 8th District, where former RealNetworks executive Alex Alben has more than $250,000 cash on hand and his GOP opponent, Rep. Jennifer Dunn (R), has announced plans to retire. Last week, one Republican, King County Sheriff Dave Reichert, entered the race."

"Anytime a popular incumbent retires, it makes the race wide open and helps the challenger," said Alben, who said his fundraising and volunteer efforts have risen in recent months. "I've been feeling the bounce already."
