Adam Smith is a 22 year incumbent, Democrat who voted for the Iraq War, in a reliably Democratic district (he's won re-election against Republican challengers by a 70/30 margin the past several years).
Due to WA's top-two primary system, instead of a Republican challenger, this year he's getting challenged from his left, running against Sarah Smith, a self-described democratic socialist.

Adam Smith is clearly the establishment favorite, including an 11:1 fundraising margin.
What a bought scumbag - hope he goes down hard.
Adam Smith seems a fitting name for a politician who has been bought-off to serve the economic interests of a corporation.
