Although it was red until the last twenty years or so. Around O'Bummer, I think.
There are reasons to believe it was flipped purposefully by various schemes.
The leftists certainly seem to rule the county now, with general support from the weak-bellied RINOs that get elected or appointed from the remaining red precincts.
In Washington state, the greater Seattle area has been blue since the 70s. Slowly, but surely the blueness has crept out and on the I5 corridor thereβs maybe two red counties On the west side of the state. East of the mountains is still mostly red except for areas like Spokane and some the Tri-Cities are starting to purple. Geographically the state is still mostly red, but based on population centers, we vote blue every election.
Mayor Ballard was a Republican with zero support from the establishment who knocked on doors and talked to people one on one to get elected. People were ready for something different, but after Ballard, I think the left and RINOs made sure it wasnβt going to happen again π
Yep blue city full of self righteous and self important leftists π
