New Elway Poll finds strong Democratic advantage ahead of 2018

Less than one week after last Tuesday’s Election Day, the state's Democratic Party is already setting its sights on 2018.

A spokesman says 50 volunteers attended a Saturday organizing academy to launch the fight for the 8th congressional district, currently held by Republican Dave Reichert who's retiring after next year. 


“I think it’s going to become pretty intense,” said longtime Washington pollster Stuart Elway of the 2018 midterms. 

Elway released a new poll this week that found that Democrats currently hold a 14-point electoral advantage in the state, when asked about which party they would likely support in congressional races next year.
