I don't know how you can say the Democrats are better at governing. A statement like that has no basis in anything but fantasy and wishful thinking. There is just no way possible to provide anything that would substantiate that. I suppose it is possible, but then I look at what is going on and I can not even fathom it being much worse.

At present, the Democrats have controlled washington state 100% for the majority of the past 35 years, with just 2 years in that time where the republicans had control of the house and senate and a few more where the house and senate where split.

The things that the Democrats are supposed to be good at are among the areas where the problems are the worst. Western state is was decertified. The homeless crisis is out of control. Over doses and crime have skyrocketed. Poverty rates are about the exact same as over 30 years ago, indicating no improvements under the democrats -The party for the poor! This essentially mirrors the national levels, meaning the Washington State Democrats have had no effect.

The only thing the Democrats have proven success in is increasing the tax burdens.

Again, it is possible the Republicans could have done worse, but if you want to argue that, please provide some evidence. Any evidence. Is there a state where the republicans have been in control where the previous indicators show significant declines?

Does anyone find it funny that after 30 + years of Democrate control, DEI is so important at this juncture. Are the Democrats that racist or prejudiced.
