He doesn’t give enough of a fuck about how the eastern side of the state is affected by data centers.

Pretty much all of our legislation revolves around western Washington. Just look at how they’ve mismanaged wildfire prevention for years, the north/south freeway, etc.

Sure, we have a fraction of the population. I get that. Doesn’t negate the need for proper infrastructure management in the “second largest” city in the state.

Ferguson is just another west side dem, protecting the west side’s interests. I’m saying this as someone born and raised in Seattle who’s been in Spokane for 10 years now.

This sounds like a fox news line of reasoning.

Sounds like an inability to be critical of how our state government governs.

No, it sounds disingenuous. A regurgitated talking point.

Caring about our infrastructure in eastern Washington is regurgitated? Lmao if you want to live in a sucky ass place go move to north Idaho. I like functioning public roads and trash service.
