As you now know, Kent went on to lose to Democrat Marie Gluesenkamp Perez not once but twice, in the 2022 and 2024 general elections. In Tuesday’s primary election, Gluesenkamp Perez advanced to November to face Republican State Sen. John Braun. In a Wednesday interview with the Washington State Standard, Hennrich said he will not be voting for Gluesenkamp Perez in November. I’ve obviously heard from fellow conservatives who would rather have a liberal Democrat in office than a moderate Republican.
