This week on “The Impact”:

It’s our special election preview show. We’ll give you a bird’s eye view of the seats up for grabs on November then an in-depth look at the 45th District race which has statewide ramifications.

A professional pollster and a political analyst join us on set for an inside look at the issues which matter to voters and what that means for the outcome.

“There will be key issues. Transportation I think is a big issue, I think with this decision about safe injections the heroin injection sites, that may become an issue,” Todd Myers, political analyst.

“What I hear in focus groups is continuing to push back against partisanship. And a real desire to see independent voices, but that has to be coupled with effectiveness,” Alison Peters, pollster.

Later we’ll tell you about the explosive jump in the number of Washington residents affected by data breaches and highlight the strike teams of WA firefighters who are battling flames in California.
