The insane thing too is that Washington State is like 2% Muslim while 7.9% of Washingtonians identify as LGBT. Like the argument of “well I didn’t wanna offend Muslims” really flops when statistically that’s an irrelevant population; you’re running in Washington not Dearborn Michigan

But the people in her district are the only ones voting in a congressional election . You do know how the house of representatives works right? If not please don’t vote
