Does WA Gov. Jay Inslee really plan to move to Idaho when he leaves office in January?
Outgoing Washington Governor Jay Inslee has addressed rumors about relocating to Idaho after his term ends, asserting these claims are unfounded. In a light-hearted post on X (formerly Twitter), he attributed the speculation to disreputable media sources and humorously stated that Washington has the best potatoes, reinforcing his dedication to the state.
