Washington residents are mailed a catalog of candidates and issues that will appear on the ballot. They’re also available at county courthouses, if you didn’t receive yours. Anyway, here’s the list of uncontested appellate court candidates:

When Idaho criminalized abortion in 2022, the governor, both US Senators, and both US Congressmen were Republican, and the state legislature maintained a GOP supermajority.
Biden and Democrats did everything possible to fight it, short of violating the Constitution and declaring war on a ruby red state. But sure, funds could have been withheld from the tiny island of Democratic legislators because they should be … undermined? Great plan!
Thanks! It sounds like “liberal” in this thread is what I’ve always called neoliberal, and “leftist” is what’s known as democratic socialism?
Curious comment, so I looked at Wikipedia’s Liberalism in the United States. Still not sure what you’re suggesting.
Could you elaborate?
HP lured me away from Apple about 15 years ago, with promises of better pay and benefits. I made the mistake of believing their lies, and proceeded to work in one of the most hostile environments I’d ever encountered. Aside from the open and constant sexual harassment, I was horrified to see customer service maliciously transfer callers to dead extensions or to the branch in the Philippines, then laugh about it. “Tech support” was for selling more products, not for resolving issues. Management was a shitshow of nepotism, falling-over-drunkenness, corruption, office affairs, and massive cover-ups.
I lasted 8 months, then I fled back to Apple, but I’ll never forget how HP blatantly loathed the customers.
I was healthy, fit, worked from home for years, and strictly followed lockdown protocol. My only “high risks” were being married to a first responder and living in Texas at the time.
That state was a shit show.
For an unvaxxed perspective, I’m on day 1,276 of stuffy, runny nose with limited senses of smell and taste plus constant mild fatigue and brain fog. I was unable to carry a conversation or walk more than 7 or 8 steps the first 3 months due to breathlessness, and smelled nothing at all for 14 months.
I get EVERY vaccine now.
Ok I fixed it for you.
… and anyone else in Washington who is interested in unopposed appellate court candidates.
