“I’ve never seen a year like this,” said Cathy Allen, national vice president of the National Women’s Political Caucus.
Female candidates advanced to the general in the state’s top congressional races, as well as the most competitive state legislative races.
Dr. Kim Schrier, a first-time female...
It is time for change!
I am a retired educator and serviceman. For almost 40 years I worked with young people Oregon and Washington. For the last 27 years of my career I was a school administrator in the Evergreen School District in Vancouver. My wife is a registered Republican. I believe it is time to choose Carolyn Long as a replacement for Jamie Herrera Beutler.
I am asking that you look past the party label that may have directed your vote in the past to delve...
Don’t hit the snooze button! We’re finally waking up to the realities of a Republican-controlled America, where corporations come first, the rich are taking even more from working families, children are ripped from their parents, political corruption runs rampant, and we’ve turned global allies into enemies. Trump-enablers like Rep. Jaime Herrera Beutler have sold out Southwest Washington and work for the 1 percent. Unlike Herrera Beutler, Carolyn Long will represent our...
Carolyn Long is a clear voice and a clear choice. President Trump has drained the swamp, turning it into a fetid cesspool of self-serving corruption with a deaf ear to the needs of the people. Rep. Jaime Herrera Beutler has supported Trump at every step. Washington must be changed so our democracy can breathe fresh air and thrive. We need to restock Congress with people who believe in government for the people. Carolyn Long is such a voice. The rubber stamps need to be voted out. We are...

Supposition: You’re my employer. I don’t show up for work, yet benefit from health care which I vote to deny you. You would like to talk to me, but I make myself only available by phone with canned questions and answers. I’m asking for your approval with intellectually insulting and dishonest questionnaires, framed to support my ideology. Why would you keep employing me?
Carolyn Long, as a decadeslong educator at Washington State University Vancouver, is no carpetbagger...
Primary election night came and went last Tuesday evening, with a mixed bag of results for both Republicans and Democrats as the two parties set their sights to November’s general election.

Rep. Jaime Herrera Beutler, R-Battle Ground, made several misleading statements during the debate with Carolyn Long (“3rd District, first debate,” Aug. 9, The Columbian).
Herrera Beutler acknowledges that she voted more than 80 times to repeal the Affordable Care Act while at the same time noting that the Republican majority had no viable alternative. Are these the actions of a responsible public official? Taking away life-saving benefits from ordinary people with no idea...
