Interesting News From the Washington 5th
Mielke to switch races
According to the Spokane Spokesman-Review Online, former Washington State Rep. Todd Mielke announced Wednesday that he is dropping out of the race for Congress and will instead run for Spokane County Commissioner.
Mielke, a Republican, is running against incumbent Spokane County Commissioner John Roskelley, a Democrat. He had been running to fill the 5th Congressional District seat being vacated by Rep. George Nethercutt, who is running for the U.S. Senate.
This winnows the race on the GOP side from four to three, the winner taking on Don Barbieri in the fall.
