Suzan DelBene won a tough race in 2012 to represent the 1st Congressional District, which reaches from Kirkland to the Canadian border. A former executive at Microsoft and other technology companies, she has used her technology background to become a leader of protecting privacy rights against government surveillance. She has also been a strong advocate for job development, economic fairness, women’s health, and immigration reform. DelBene’s top challenger is Pedro Celis, a Republican and retired Microsoft engineer who was a leader for the George W. Bush re-election effort in 2004. Celis recently earned national attention by making unfortunate comments comparing gay marriage to polygamy. Edwin Moats, Robert Sutherland, and several other extremely conservative candidates in this race are not running competitive campaigns. DelBene’s experience and strong track record in her first term make her the clear choice in this race.Last updated: 2023-04-05

Steve Hobbs is a veteran, father, and conservative- leaning Democrat who is a reliable vote on social issues. For example, he has sponsored the Reproductive Parity Act in the Senate for the last three years, advocating hard for Senate leadership to vote on the bill to protect access to safe and legal abortion. Hobbs has been less reliable when it comes to closing tax loopholes or raising revenue to fund education and essential services. Despite his bipartisan voting record, Hobbs was dismissed by the Republicans as the Chair of the Senate Housing and Insurance Committee during this year's legislative session. Hobbs' opponent, businessman Jim Kellett, is a cookie cutter Republican who will toe the party line. Hobbs deserves another four years.Last updated: 2023-04-05

Representative Hans Dunshee is a progressive champion who has earned the support of environmentalists, labor organizations, education groups, women's health, and equal rights advocates. He has been instrumental in passing significant climate, energy, and green jobs bills. He championed a bipartisan bill to fund the construction of schools in 2014 and also led the passage of his Jobs NOW package in 2012. Dunshee's opponent, Marysville City Councilman Rob Toyer, is backed primarily by conservative business interests, including big developers. Dunshee is clearly the best choice in this race.Last updated: 2023-04-05

Mike Wilson is a government and politics teacher as well as a coach in Everett who is running for an open seat. As a public school teacher, Wilson has seen firsthand the impacts of crowded classrooms on his students. Wilson is a strong candidate who will fight to fully fund schools and reduce class sizes. His opponent, Mark Harmsworth, is a frequent Republican candidate who has previously lost to Hans Dunshee. Harmsworth is a former Mill Creek city council person who supports the Tim Eyman 2/3 supermajority requirement to close tax loopholes or raise revenue. Though he has campaigned on increasing education funding, he has not offered any revenue options of how to do it. Wilson is the best choice in this race.Last updated: 2023-04-05

John Lovick is the current Snohomish County Executive, running to retain his recent appointment to the position following the resignation of previous County Executive, Aaron Reardon. Lovick spent nine years in the state legislature representing the 44th District, during five of which he was Speaker Pro-Tem. He was elected as the Snohomish County Sheriff in 2007 and successfully merged the County Jail with the Sheriff’s Office. Two people are challenging Lovick. His Democratic challenger, James R. Deal, is not running a credible campaign. Republican Carolyn Eslick is the current Mayor of Sultan. She is critical of Seattle’s $15 minimum wage and intends to entice Seattle businesses into Snohomish to avoid paying higher wages. Whoever wins the Executive position in the General Election will be up for reelection again in 2015, when a candidate will be elected to a full four-year term. While Lovick angered many progressives with his vocal support of the new Boeing contract, he is still the best choice in this race.Last updated: 2023-04-05
