Sweep -- I've seen other references on social media about this Republican or that Republican refuses to say they'll accept the Nov. election results. It's a gotcha-scam question. You say, 'Yes I'll accept the election results' and then if anything shaky happens, now you can't question the results. And in a hyper-technical way...if you make that agreement, now there's potential motivation for nefarious forces to manipulate an outcome .

And of course when you refuse to automatically accept the results in advance you're portrayed as some sort of conspiracy theorist. The question is bogus. The answer is: I will accept the election results if the election is orderly and accurate.

SWEEP -- another example of "democracy dies in darkness" and an utter lack of transparency from the Inslee Administration.

ALSO: A.I. we've discussed before...is only as helpful as its uploaded accurately. If the A.I. engine is biased politically, socially, economically the AI will generate bogus information. We saw how detrimental that was during COVID when there was a politcally coordinated effort to disinform the public.

SWEEP -- cost of living by wasting valuable, precious tax dollars...

ARCHIVE -- $ 4 billion in state spending on homeless; 7.8 million WA residents are now out $4 billion and homelessness is barely improving; that's $512 per every man, woman, boy, girl, Latin X, non-binary, gender fluid, elderly, newborn resident of Washington because of this self-inflicted crisis of 'housing first' and the moral hazard that goes along with 'housing first' homeless policy. Bob Ferguson will bring you more of the same if elected in November.
