26th LD Dems mock opponents

The 26th Legislative District Democrats met Tuesday in Port Orchard to endorse statewide Democrats and local state House incumbent for position 2 Rep. Larry Seaquist (D-Gig Harbor) and candidate for position 1 Kim Abel (D-Port Orchard).

Then, using the platform of a captive audience of like-minded voters, the 26th Dems took some time not just to endorse their own, but to mock their opponents. Actors portrayed Republican gubernatorial candidate Dino Rossi and 26th LD House candidates Jan Angel and Marlyn Jensen, spoofing their policies on things like development, health care and education as well as Rossi's and Angel's choice to use the term GOP instead of Republican on the "top two" primary ballot.

Steven Gardner of the Kitsap Sun covered the event and has video of the performances here.
