The primary election is over. Fifty-three percent of Washington state voters chose Gary Locke. I cannot understand why. He has done nothing to help the average state voter.
He has allowed the Department of Social and Health Services to run amok. He does nothing to any of the senior leadership of the DSHS who allow babies and children to go back to parents who kill them.
Remember the abused woman who got $9 million from state? Remember the $17 million that was awarded to three developmentally disabled men who were abused by their caregiver? This is the most costly governor we have ever had. The money he continues to waste is ours. Don’t ever forget that.
We will soon need to choose between Gary Locke or John Carlson. Can we continue to afford an expensive Gary Locke? I don’t think so.
