Democratic Congresswoman Marie Gluesenkamp Perez has secured victory in the closely watched 3rd Congressional District race in Washington state. Perez, who defeated Republican challenger Joe Kent for the second time in two House cycles, has emerged as the projected winner, according to sources.
Representing the 3rd District in the southwest part of the state bordering Portland, Oregon, Gluesenkamp Perez faced a challenging race after winning by a narrow margin in 2022. The district, known for its significant Republican voter presence, was a key battleground for both parties.
