Two more voter perspectives for you.

"I'm going with Inslee," said Christian Bishop, a paralegal, who said the governor's pandemic response was important to him and he didn't want to see someone else take the reins. "I trust him."

Bishop said he supported rollbacks of some activities -- like bars and restaurants -- as case counts rise in Washington, but believed those measures would help keep everyone safe, even if they were difficult to stomache.

How was the pandemic affecting his life? "How much time do you have?" Bishop asked. He's moving to new housing because of strains that developed with his current roommates, a couple, while everyone is stuck at home.

Social activities -- like meeting with small numbers of friends in the park -- are freighted with concern or anxiousness. "I feel stress every time I see somebody," he said. "It's been too much, but I'm lucky. I'm still employed."

But, he feels like the state has handled COVID-19 relatively well. "It could have been much worse, given that we were the first epicenter" in the U.S., Bishop said.

Bishop said the moment we are living through is "terrifying." He worries the country is headed toward fascism. "Just get out Trump," he said. Bishop supports defunding the police by 50 percent and redirecting that money toward social services and education.

He sees the time we are living, and this election season, as an opportunity to "restructure" our society and politics.

Now, meet Martha Reynevald, whose mask sported blue and red stars. Interviewing Reynevald represents a first for me -- first time I've ever met a candidate's family member at the ballot box. She is mother to Sarah Reynevald, who is running for State Representative in the 36th.

Reynevald said she's proud of her daughter. "She's been working so hard," Reynevald said. "She's an amazing candidate no matter what happens."

Martha Reynevald, a life coach who lives in Queen Anne, said the pandemic has upended most aspects of her life and said it still feels surreal to see people masked in the grocery store.

“I miss closeness, being able to go to restaurants to see people,” she said, adding that she’s particularly concerned about “all the people living alone who don’t have family or don’t have resources.”

She is particularly worried about the pandemic's affect on families balancing childcare with work, schoolchildren's access to remote learning if they don’t have computers or other resources and joblessness that she expects to increase homelessness.

But, in her view, the people of Washington have done good work to pull together to keep one another safe. She’s seen encouraging examples of citizens helping one another. She views the leadership of Jay Inslee and other state politicians during the pandemic favorably.

Reynevald was excited to support Bob Ferguson for Attorney General.

“Bob Ferguson has been amazing in all of his lawsuits against the Trump administration and keeping the environment clean,” Reynevald said.

Environmental issues and climate change are among her top issues, though she views them as too often being placed on the "backburner."

“The people with less resources and money and power are always being affected worse,” Reynevald said.

Looking toward the general election, Reynevald said she's very concerned about Democracy and the sanctity and integrity of the vote. President Donald Trump's comments denigrating voting by mail have been concerning to her.

Reynevald said she trusts voting by mail, but is concerned about Trump's political influence on the postal office ahead of voting. She worries of electioneering “shenanigans,” voter suppression or “skullduggery” in the general election.

“I trust things pretty well in Washington. We luckily have a pretty good system. I’m not sure I trust it in other states,” she said, adding that President Trump “doesn’t want us to vote by mail -- one of the most effective and safe ways to vote.”

“I’m hoping voting takes place peacefully,” Reynevald said, adding: “I’m also concerned about if Trump loses.” She views democracy as at risk and is concerned that the president would not cede power peacefully, though that "sounds outlandish."
