U.S. Representative

    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.

  • Charles Jensen photo
    Democrat

    Charles Jensen

    Website Facebook Endorsements
  • Charles Jensen is a Sedro-Woolley teacher and 12-year veteran of the U.S. Air Force and Washington National Guard who is challenging Tea Party first term legislator Elizabeth Scott. Jensen wants to encourage sustainable job growth, strengthen education, improve the area's transportation network, and protect the environment. Jensen is running because he believes Scott's record does not represent the district. Scott voted against making spousal rape a felony and also voted against aerospace training and research that the 39th LD relies upon for jobs. Scott was also strongly criticized this year for using the tragedy in Oso to promote her own personal agenda of attacking emergency responders. Jensen would be a far better candidate for this district.

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.
