* Incumbent

Though she is still expected to have the upper hand, the Republican incumbent, Jaime Herrera Beutler, has seen her race for re-election tighten considerably since the spring. She is being challenged by a first-time candidate, Carolyn Long, a political science professor. The Third District used to lean Democratic, but it went for President Trump in 2016. Ms. Herrera Beutler has sometimes broken from her party in Congress, voting against efforts to repeal and replace Obamacare and opposing oil drilling off the state’s coast. But in a sign of how close the race has become, the Republican Party poured more money into the race in late October to defend the seat.
