Today, we’re bringing you the best from the KUOW Newsroom…

First, Washington state's Democratic party is facing a competitive election season, and its fiercest challengers are other Democrats.

Next, Friday was May Day across the US, and here in Seattle, a march and rally started at Cal Anderson park. On hand was a new group called the Seattle Singing Resistance… inspired by the anti-ICE movement in Minnesota. 

And finally, a story from the city of Battle Ground in southern Washington…
