Rasmussen (5/12, likely voters, 3/27 in parens):
Christine Gregoire (D): 51 (47)
Dino Rossi (R): 41 (46)
(MoE: ±4%)
I have a feeling that Dino Rossi may come to regret picking 2008 as the year he decided to launch his political comeback.

Obama is poised for a big win there, maybe by double digits. We have at least a 50/50 shot at defeating Reichert as well. As for the Governors race, I’m not very concerned at all. I’m much more concerned with holding the NC race than the one in WA.
I’s like to see more polls here before I get too excited, but this is good news indeed.
is the race for Commissioner of Public Lands. We have a right-wing, industry-aligned Commissioner right now in Doug Sutherland. Peter Goldmark, who you may remember from his 2006 WA-05 run, is running on the D side as a guy who truly gets lands issues and will be a better steward than Sutherland. Lots of us are focused on this race more than the governor’s race, which we pretty much assume that Gregoire will pull out.
is as spectacular a person as he is a candidate. We went to college together. He is a perfect fit for this office as he would have been for the district he ran for in ’06. He deserves our support for this significant office.
