SEATTLE (AP) — Washington state’s longtime attorney general and a former sheriff known for his work hunting down the Green River Killer have advanced to the November general election in the battle to become the next governor. The Democratic stronghold hasn’t had an open race for the state’s top job in more than a decade. In high profile congressional races, Democratic U.S. Rep. Marie Gluesenkamp Perez has advanced and will face Trump-endorsed Joe Kent, whom she defeated two years ago. And Democratic U.S. Rep. Kim Schrier will go head-to-head against Republican Carmen Goers, a commercial banker. A congressional race in the 4th District was too early to call.
