Update (8/5):聽

Incumbent Jaime Herrera Beutler’s (R) slim lead over Joe Kent (R) was cut in half after Thursday night results were tallied in the primary election race for the 3rd U.S. House District, garnering 23.26% and 22.03% of the vote, respectively. Democratic challenger Marie Gluesenkamp Perez has already advanced to the November election with 31.05% of the vote.

Herrera Beutler’s impeachment vote against former President Donald Trump spurred a number of Trump-supporting candidates to run for office in Washington state’s southwestern district. Kent, who has garnered support from Trump himself, has connections to right-wing extremists, including a campaign consultant who was a member of the Proud Boys.
