Chris vs. Dino: The Deuce—Education

There are three weeks until Election Day, and three issues in our state's gubernatorial race (four if you count Eastern Washington's concerns). Each week we'll be taking an award-winning look at where the candidates stand. We missed a week, and we’re sorry. The Times agreed to fill in while we were away, and now we know that a white guy from the Eastside enjoys a good steak. Education: Gregoire: No spending cuts, yes to WASL, smaller class sizes, more pencils, books and increased funding for teacher’s dirty looks.

There are 11 weeks until Election Day, and 11 issues in our state's gubernatorial race (12 if you count Eastern Washington's concerns). Each week we'll be taking an award-winning look at where the candidates stand. Washington residents pay the highest gas tax in all the land. Wait, what?!?! We demand to know who is at fault for this!

Three years later the tax isn't making traffic better, for example it still takes drivers......

He's probably one of those jerk-store Northwest weather apologists that we can't stand. Look, the recent summers up......

Chris vs. Dino: The Deuce—The Viaduct

There are 14 weeks until Election Day, which is great because there are only 14 issues in our state's gubernatorial race (15 if you count Eastern Washington's concerns).
