Among the nation's most closely watched races is a rematch in southwestern Washington's 3rd Congressional District.
U.S. Rep. Marie Gluesenkamp Perez, a Democrat representing Washington's 3rd Congressional District in southwest Washington, speaks to supporters Tuesday night, Nov. 5, 2024, while leading her Republican challenger, Joe Kent. First-term Democratic U.S. Rep. Marie Gluesenkamp Perez was leading her challenger Republican Joe Kent, a former Green Beret, in unofficial vote returns Tuesday night in the battle for Washington's 3rd Congressional District which encompasses southwest Washington.
"We don't know the outcome of the election yet," she said Tuesday night to a cheering crowd of supporters at the Hilton Hotel in Vancouver. "But we do know that someone like me, a mom who works in the trades, would never have gotten to Congress without all of you."Her predecessor, moderate Republican Jaime Herrera Beutler, held office for six terms but failed to survive the 2022 primary after voting to impeach Trump over the Jan. 6 insurrection.
She supports abortion access and has hammered Kent, who previously has said he supported a national abortion ban, for changing his position after the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade. Kent now says abortion laws should be left up to the states.
