2012 Election

One Question for Rob McKenna

By Josh Feit August 16, 2012

In a recent Seattle Times profile, Rob McKenna revealed
that he voted for Democrat Walter F. Mondale in the 1984 election against Republican icon Ronald Reagan.

But he has not revealed if he snubbed Reagan in 1980 and voted, not only against Reagan, but for the biggest Republican bogeyman of all time, Jimmy Carter. (McKenna turned 18 a month before the 1980 election, and certainly the civic-minded young man voted in the US presidential election.)

Our "One Question" for McKenna: Who did you vote for in the pivotal 1980 election?

We've asked his campaign this pressing question several times, and we haven't gotten an answer yet.



Though Erica's money is on the third party candidate that year, Republican Illinois congressman turned independent, John Anderson.
