Could Hillary Clinton's responses to questions by reporters give Washington and Oregon to Donald Trump. Washington and Oregon have not went to a Republican since 1984 when Ronald Reagan was president. We are talking about only 19 electoral votes. Hillary will outright win Seattle and Portland that is a given. Remember in 2000 and 2008 George W Bush and John McCain came very close to winning Oregon. In September 2008 John McCain was in the lead over Barack Obama in September 2008 poll by Seattle station KING 5 News. In 2004 Washington State came very close to electing Dino Rossi for Governor over Christine Gregiore too bad too many King County voters voted for her.
Here is something that Hillary needs to know about Washington and Oregon voters they think pretty independently. Democrats have always counted on Washington and Oregon to cement there victories. However when Washington and Oregon continue to hear Donald Trump. These voters also want the truth and do not support Trans-Pacific Partnership. Both of these states supported Bernie Sanders in the caucus not Hillary Clinton. Remember Barack Obama did not win in Spokane in 2008 and 2012. He did not get one Eastern Washington County. In 2004 John Kerry won the state. Gregiore only won one county. Rossi won the other 38 counties in the Governors race. Spokane did not support Jay Inslee and Gregiore in the state governors races in 2008 and 2012.
