2nd Congressional District

U.S. Representative

  • Rick Larsen photo
    Democrat

    Rick Larsen

    Website Facebook Endorsements
  • Rep. Rick Larsen is a moderate, pragmatic Democrat who has been a strong advocate for jobs, transportation, and infrastructure projects in the 2nd District since he was first elected to Congress in 2000. He has also led efforts to protect voting rights, fought to reform student loans, and has been a champion of Wall Street reform. Unfortunately, Larsen angered many progressives with his support of the new contract that eliminated hard-earned pension benefits for Boeing machinists. Before serving in Congress he served on the Snohomish County Council and worked on economic development for City of Everett.

    Larsen is facing two opponents who have far less resources in the primary. BJ Guillot is running on an extremely conservative Tea Party platform. Independent Mike Lapointe is running against Larsen on a very progressive platform that includes raising the minimum wage to $15 per hour immediately. Larsen’s experience, broad support, and generally progressive track record make him a good choice in this race.

Snohomish County

Snohomish County Executive

  • John Lovick photo
    Democrat

    John Lovick

    Website Facebook Endorsements
  • 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.
