🗳Pay Attention to the Victories!🗳

He won by roughly 0.6%, defeating a more conservative challenger who wanted to break up the court's progressive majority. #courts #CourtsMatter #election #election2024 #uspol #uspolitics https://www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news/politics/sal-mungia-defeats-dave-larson-for-open-wa-supreme-court-seat/
