SEATTLE — Michelle Obama is heading to Seattle to headline a fundraiser for Gov. Chris Gregoire’s re-election campaign.
The wife of presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama is scheduled to speak at WaMu Theater at Qwest Field. Gregoire is expected to raise about $320,000 at today’s fundraiser.
Gregoire faces a potentially tough race against Republican challenger Dino Rossi, whom she beat in 2004. Gregoire won that race by just 133 votes, following three vote tallies and a failed Republican court challenge.
