Twelve candidates are running in this largely conservative district to replace Doc Hastings, who is retiring this year. Among those running are eight Republicans, two Democrats, and two Independents. Estakio Beltran has received the most support from progressives among these candidates. Beltran is a community leader and former Congressional staffer who wants to end the gridlock in Congress and ensure farm workers and tribal communities have a voice at the federal level.

The main conservative candidates in the race are former Rep. Dan Newhouse; Janéa Holmquist, a far-right state Senator who led a number of bills that hurt working families this past year; and Tea Party activist Clint Didier, the former NFL player who has put his own money into numerous Congressional races. Other candidates include Democrat Tony Sandoval and Republicans George Cicotte, Kevin Midbust, Glen Stockwell, and Gavin Seim, who are not running competitive campaigns. Beltran is the best choice to represent the people of this district.

Eric Kalia is running to ensure representation in the Washington state legislature includes average citizens alongside wealthy elites. He says he is fed up with the system that is rigged against immigrants, people of color and working families and wants to fight the power dynamic that keeps the system this way. Sadly, with zero dollars raised, he has little chance of defeating his opponent, Larry Haler, a far-right conservative that is an obstacle to progress. Kalia is the better choice in this race.
