After attacking religious views around marriage, Bob Ferguson turned off his social media comments on X to avoid criticism.

The Bob Ferguson for governor campaign is acting concerned about his chances of beating his challenger, former King County Sheriff and congressman Dave Reichert. He shut off comments to his recent social media smears on X, knowing he’d be called out for disingenuously attacking religious perspectives. But he’s got the Seattle Times helping out his campaign with what is effectively an in-kind donation.

To promote the video, the Bob Ferguson For Governor campaign tweeted, “#BREAKING Video just surfaced of my Republican opponent Dave Reichert telling a group of Pierce County Republicans in February that ‘marriage is between a man and a woman.'” Despite it being a “breaking video” that “just surfaced,” Ferguson managed to have it included in a produced campaign ad with Democrat, Ferguson supporters offering their reactions. It was followed up by an email begging for donations.

For example, does Ferguson have similar objections to devout Muslims espousing their exact same position on marriage? Reichert wasn’t taking a policy position, but a religious one. As Ferguson knows, same-sex marriage is not under threat in Washington and neither the governor nor the legislature can change that. Same-sex marriage is a federally protected, constitutional right.

Another related set of questions Ferguson hopes to avoid bringing too much attention to is whether or not he joins his party in support of minors receiving so-called gender-affirming care without parental consent, biological boys competing against biological girls in high school and collegiate sports leagues, and whether or not he can even define a woman.
