Locke, 57, was the country's first Chinese-American governor, elected to lead Washington in 1996 and re-elected in 2000.Locke's pretty well-respected and a solid progressive choice...so far. We'll see what the microscope finds on his record.Prior to becoming governor, the Democrat served five terms in the U.S. House of Representatives and one term as executive of King County, Washington. He was chairman of the House Appropriations Committee from 1989 to 1994.
