Assume Nothing

We have not won anything yet.
I live in Washington state, which most would consider a very blue state, in many ways it is but in some ways it is not. The Cascades are a very real divide here... King county (county that includes Seattle) is the main reason our state is blue.
In the 2012 election Washington went for Obama 52/48

I actually worry how many votes Johnson and Stein will pull from Clinton here (as Washington went heavily for Sanders and has a disportionate number of "Bernie or bust" people)...depending on what that number is could determine who takes Washington's EV.

Many are working hard here to help Clinton win, including me, but no one should assume Washington or ANY STATE, is a blue state until election results are in.
please, please don't take your foot off the gas or eyes off the prize. It's not over till we hear the words "Madam President Hillary Clinton"
