Washington State House Race Is Dead Heat

As it was in 2022, the race for the U.S. House in Washington state’s 3rd District is a dead heat.

And just like last time, both sides are bracing for a disputed result that may take several days before voters know who is elected to Congress.

Less than two weeks ago, a Northwest Progressive Institute poll showed freshman Democrat Rep. Marie Gluesenkamp Perez and Republican challenger Joe Kent tied at 46%.
