    Jason Ritchie

    Website Facebook Endorsements
  • Jason Ritchie is a rising star who is running an energetic campaign to defeat incumbent Dave Reichert. Ritchie started a business remodeling homes for the disabled after his father had a stroke and suffered from limited mobility. With a strong commitment to progressive values on issues such as immigration reform, protecting safe and legal access to abortion, and fully funding education, Ritchie would be a welcome change to the district.

    Conservative Republican Dave Reichert has yet to sponsor one piece of legislation that has been passed into law and is an ineffective representative for the district. Ritchie deserves your vote.

Pierce County Council, District #7

  • Derek Young photo
    Democrat

    Derek Young

    Website Facebook
  • Derek Young is a four-term Gig Harbor City Council member and small business owner. He wants to improve the county’s mental health and public safety services and has been an advocate for women’s health and reproductive rights. He emphasizes conservation efforts for the region, having tripled the size of the Gig Harbor's parks and open spaces while on the City Council. As a Board Member for Pierce Transit, Young fought to minimize cuts to public transportation options for Pierce County citizens.

    Young is challenging conservative Stanley Flemming, who was first elected in 2010. Flemming recently moved to Gig Harbor to run for re-election after redistricting placed his house in University Place into a different district. In 2012, Flemming ran against Denny Heck for the U.S. House of Representatives and lost badly after campaigning on a platform of repealing the Affordable Care Act. Flemming’s congressional campaign also struggled with allegations of financial improprieties after taking out a large, legally questionable loan from a company in California. Derek Young is the clear choice in this race.
