7th Congressional District

U.S. Representative

    Democrat

    Jim McDermott

    Website Facebook Endorsements
  • Rep. Jim McDermott has represented the 7th District since 1989 and is a champion of progressive values. McDermott is a member of the Progressive Caucus and serves on the House Ways and Means Committee. A physician by trade, he specializes in health care issues, particularly regarding the international fight against AIDS, his sponsorship of a bill to provide a single payer health care system, and women’s health. He has also been a vocal advocate fighting for working families who have been hurt by Wall Street, as well as fighting for alternative energy, and an official end to the war in Iraq.

    McDermott faces two challengers, neither of whom are compelling: Independent West Seattle lawyer Doug McQuaid, who lost badly in Seattle's mayoral primary in 2013, and perennial candidate GoodSpaceGuy. McDermott deserves your vote.

32nd Legislative District

State Senator

  • Maralyn Chase photo
    Democrat

    Maralyn Chase

    Website Endorsements
  • Maralyn Chase has been a longtime advocate for progressive causes. She has the backing of labor, environmental advocates, pro-choice groups, and the social justice community. Her opponents are Democratic Shoreline City Councilman Chris Eggen and Republican Robert Reedy, who has previously lost campaigns for state representative, Snohomish County Council, and Mountlake Terrace City Council. Much of the district is new since Chase won election in 2010 due to redistricting. Eggen says he is running because the district needs leadership that not only stands for progressive values but that can build consensus and get results on issues important to its residents. As a Shoreline Councilman, he has advocated for sustainable budgets that protect services for the vulnerable and protected parks and open spaces. However, Chase has earned the support of progressive groups and deserves your vote.
