Right wing talk show host Jason Rantz keeps demonstrating he’d rather blatantly spin poll results than honestly interpret them
Two new propaganda pieces that ran in Seattle Red in July of 2026 continue a pattern of deception from the station's top personality. One passes off advocacy issue polling as ballot measure polling and another pretends that a symbolic one-point difference in NPI's congressional polling establishes a Republican lead in WA-03.

Brian Heywood’s IP26-645 (gutting billions in progressive revenue for education and essential services) is getting certified
645 would repeal the state's new million dollar earners tax, which only 20,000 or so of the wealthiest Washingtonians would begin paying by the end of the decade, while leaving in place the legislative authorization for the investments the revenue is supposed to fund, creating an enormous fiscal mess. Language tucked in the measure could also put at risk existing sources of revenue, too.
