Outspoken State Senator Phil Fortunato has announced his candidacy for State Governor. Fortunato, was elected to the state senate from the 31st Legislative District in 2017. Although his district is within 50 miles of Seattle, his views are light years apart.
Fortunato is a frequent speaker at pro gun rallies. My guess is that as part of his law and order stance, he would work to recriminalize recreational pot use. I've nicknamed that position "guns not grass".
Fortunato has said that he would make homelessness his main issue, something that may resonate against the very Liberal to moderately Liberal voting block in Seattle and King County.
Loren Culp, a police chief in the Eastern Washington town of Republic, has also announced his candidacy for governor on the Republican side.
Current two term governor Jay Inslee is now running for president of the United States, but has not ruled out a run for a third term. Other contenders for governor in 2020 include Attorney General Bob Ferguson, King County Executive Dow Constantine, and Land Commissioner Hilary Franz, all Democrats.

This guy will probably hide that he is a republican.
