Some big-time political firepower has been added to the 2024 gubernatorial race. The Republicans may have their front-runner.
On Friday night, KIRO 7 learned that former King County Sheriff and former congressman Dave Reichert has filed with the public disclosure commission as a candidate for governor.
Reichert served as a member of Congress from 2005 to 2019. But he might be best known as the former King County Sheriff who helped track down the Green River Killer.
Incredibly excited to say it’s official! Dave Reichert is running for Governor! We need the Sheriff who doggedly brought in the Green River Killer to clean up this State. @jasonrantz , @BrandiKruse , @KVIJohnCarlson
