Election redux: Incumbents, Trump and election deniers leave their mark

EVERETT — Commercials are over and concessions mostly made as ballot counting of the 2023 midterm election enters a second week.

So, it’s time to take stock of some of what transpired Nov. 8.

For example, we know Patty Murray, the tennis-shoe wearing Democratic powerhouse is heading back to the U.S. Senate for a sixth term. We know her win over Republican Tiffany Smiley wasn’t cheap or as easy as previous wins. What we don’t know is if Murray will be in the majority, or not.

Similarly, we know Democratic U.S. Rep. Rick Larsen, Rep. Suzan DelBene and Rep. Kim Schrier are returning to Congress. We don’t know if their party will still hold the majority.

Article was written today. Are they just playing it super safe even though the networks have called the Senate for the Democrats? Just struck me as odd. Or I guess it could have been written yesterday and published today …
