Rep. Dan Newhouse is a Sunnyside Republican who takes after his father, the late Sen. Irv Newhouse of Mabton. If nothing else the Newhouse name is known for being one of gentlemen in Olympia.
But Dan’s got a sly, understated, sense of humor, too.
In a recent joint meeting with Democratic challenger Tao Berman before the Herald editorial board Newhouse offered that “at the risk of complimenting my opponent it’s good to see young people in the system.”
“I think in the future he’s going to have lots to contribute,” Newhouse said of Berman, “just not in this election.”
