Dan Newhouse Re-elected in Washington's 4th District

Congressman Dan Newhouse has declared victory in his re-election campaign for Washington's 4th Congressional District, defeating Trump-backed challenger Jerrod Sessler. With 52.1% of the votes counted, Newhouse emphasized his commitment to local issues such as protecting the Lower Snake River dams and addressing the Hanford Site cleanup. This victory marks Newhouse's sixth consecutive term in Congress, where he has served since 2015, and he remains one of the few GOP lawmakers who voted to impeach Donald Trump still in office. Sessler, a Navy veteran and businessman, did not comment immediately after the election results were announced. Newhouse's victory reflects a solid support base in a historically conservative district, despite Trump's significant influence in the area. His campaign focused on his experience and dedication to addressing the unique challenges of Central Washington.
