The State of Washington has been run by, and ruined by, Democrat politicians for decades. When the Antifa/BLM riots took over Seattle in 2020, the Democrat mayor and the Democrat governor cheered them on for months. In the four years since, lawmakers have pushed ever more bills to handcuff police and sheriffs to prevent them from protecting their communities against both violent and non-violent offenders. One attribute of The Left has always been their dislike of the electoral process. They don’t want Americans voting for their leaders, if those leaders believe in the Bill of Rights. They are forever scheming for ways to disenfranchise Americans. And they hold a special disdain for sheriffs because they protect We The People from oppressive government. SEE LINK TO ARTICLE BELOW
DE-CERTIFYING ELECTED SHERIFFS
Washington citizens and constitutionally elected sheriffs are gearing up for the battle ahead in the 2025 legislative session to protect the rights of voters to decide if their sheriff is fit for duty or not. As usual, Washington Democrats believe they know better than the voters, so they want to give State overlords the authority to de-certify YOUR constitutionally elected sheriff.
One of the methods Democrat politicians and anti-police organizations are looking to in their efforts to decrease safety and increase crime is HB 2027. This bill was introduced during the 2024 legislative session, but did not get out of committee. It is expected to be re-introduced in the 2025 session, and Washington’s constitutionally-elected sheriffs are nervous. Black Lives Matter Seattle King County and the (anti-police) organization named The Washington Coalition for Police Accountability (WCPA) are promoting this bill.
If passed, this bill would allow the State to decertify any of the thirty-eight^ constitutionally elected sheriffs in the State of Washington, thus disenfranchising the voters of that county. Bob Ferguson, the long time attorney general, will be sworn in as governor on January 15th. He does not like constitutionally elected sheriffs and will certainly sign this bill of it passes out of the legislature. It will be Governor Ferguson, not the voters, who ultimately decides whether an elected sheriff is “fit for duty.”
With this bill, certification, training and background checks for elected sheriffs will be the ruse by which the State will wipe out the votes, county by county, and install Ferguson’s choice as sheriff. He will start with those sheriff who consider themselves Constitutional Sheriffs. SEE DEFINITION IN ARTICLE BELOW
RCW 36.28.010 and RCW 36.28.011 defines the duties and limitations of an elected sheriff, which does not include oversight by the governor.

^There are 39 counties in the state. Currently, King County (Seattle) is the only county wherein the voters are not allowed to elect their own sheriff. The governor appoints his lackey to the “sheriff’s” position.
