UPDATE: latest round of ballots counted shows that Katie Wilson now leads Bruce Harrell in the Seattle Mayor's race by 1,346 votes.
That's currently within the 2,000 vote margin to trigger an automatic machine recount. Though there are ~1,000 ballots with signature issues that could change that.

There was a similar thermostatic anti-287(g) backlash during Trump 1.0. On a local levels, non-cooperation policies have had enormous success in recent years. Unfortunately, that has also led to a backlash, with multiple GOP states *mandating* cooperation through new state laws.
NEW: Dems easily flipped the sheriff's office in Pennsylvania's Bucks County, a big swing county in the Philly suburbs.
So? The incumbent GOP sheriff had contracted with ICE. His Dem challenger promised to end the contract.
Now he wants other swing-state Dems to look at his victory as a lesson:

The Just Move Right hypothesis struck us initially as being a bit simplistic, a bit too conveniently aligned with the DC establishment’s pre-existing beliefs and opposed to their ideological opponents'. The more we’ve talked to voters over the past year, the more this explanation has unraveled.
