Goldmark trailing
Results from Washington's 5th District indicate Democratic challenger Peter Goldmark is trailing Republican incumbent Cathy McMorris. McMorris has 54.69% to Goldmark's 45.30%.
Nobody in their right mind gets in these things to lose on purpose. But Goldmark presented enough of a challenge that McMorris had to fight. So on this night where many of us are celebrating, let's give a round of applause to Peter Goldmark, who showed that there is no such thing as a permanently red district in Washington.
I really like this Goldmark fellow, I hope he can run again. And if he doesn't want to run for Congress again (not saying anything other than it's a huge sacrifice) then I hope state Democrats keep him involved in the party. People like Goldmark don't um, grow on trees.
