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

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.Last updated: 2023-04-05Jim McDermott

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.Last updated: 2023-04-05Jason Ritchie

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
