KOMO News’ Michelle Esteban sat down for a one-on-one interview with Reichert on Wednesday.
Despite being behind in the polls, Republican gubernatorial candidate Dave Reichert told KOMO News he's confident and predicts he will win the race. If that happens, a Republican will be in the Washington governor's mansion for the first time since the 1980s.The former seven-term U.S. congressman and two-term King County sheriff who helped to catch the infamous “Green River Killer” feels an “undercurrent of support” not because of polls, but based on months of talking to voters.
If Reichert is successful in his election bid, it would not be the first time he's come from behind to take the win. Reichert said in six out of seven of his congressional races he had come from behind victories, but it would be the first time in four decades.
