Just four votes separate candidates in East Pierce County state House race

A person who represents East Pierce County in the Washington state Legislature has run for re-election — and her bid for another term is on thin ice. According to the Washington Secretary of State’s website , the race for the 25th Legislative District’s second state representative has a four-vote difference. As of 2:40 p.m. on Wednesday, Republican incumbent Cyndy Jacobsen has 28,359 votes (49.97%) to Democratic challenger Jenn Marie Strickling’s 28,355 (49.97%). The 25th Legislative District stretches across Puyallup, South Hill and the Summit-Waller area. Voters first elected Jacobsen to the seat in 2020, replacing Rep. Chris Gildon (R), who went on to become the district’s state senator. She has been re-elected twice, once in 2022 and once in 2024. Before running for her seat in Olympia, Jacobsen served one term on the Puyallup City Council. According to the voter’s guide , Strickling is from Orting and served on the Pierce County Charter Review Commission after being elected in 2025. Jacobsen ran alongside fellow representative Michael Keaton (R), whose bid for a second term looks unlikely. As of Wednesday afternoon, Keaton had received 27,951 votes to Democratic challenger David Berg’s 28,851 votes — a 900-vote difference. Kyle Haugh, elections manager

Meet Magoo – The Toy Squeaker!

Meet Magoo – an 7-year-old male Boxer mix from Seattle Humane. My foster family says I’m super chill and I have a calming energy. I’m really sweet, well mannered and a joy to hang out with! I’m very affectionate and I love to snuggle, cuddle and hang out with kids. I’m up for anything and just go with the flow! Walk? Yes. Hike? Yes. Snuggle? Yes. You name it, I’m there! Not to toot my own horn, but I am GREAT on a leash! I’m super smart! I already know “sit”, “down”, “paw”, “out”, “walk” and I’m eager to learn more! I do love a good treat and I’m ready to share snacks with you! I love to play and my favorite toy is one that squeaks! Some quotes from my walking team and my foster mom: “Magoo is a really good boy”, “I walked Magoo today and he was great, as usual”, “Magoo is a calm, well-mannered very pleasant walking companion”

A younger generation is giving new life to Seattle’s iconic floating homes

On Lake Union and Portage Bay, longtime floating home residents are moving on, and young families are taking their place. For many newcomers, the draw is as much the close-knit community as the uniqueness of the homes. Neighbors see each other daily, stopping to chat on shared docks, and that sense of community is part of the appeal. Inside, though, the homes are private and quiet, and docks are usually silent by 9 PM.
