This district is so red you could run Bill Clinton and he would lose by thirty points. Eastern Washington is now and forever will be a Republican seat. Hasting did bring home the bacon for Hanford and that was good, he also looked the other way on farm workers as most are not entitled to work here but is good for his district.
