Brian Estes, the vice chair of the executive board of the Whatcom County Democrats, is running for District 4 on the County Council. Estes' top priorities include resolving water quantity issues, creating high-wage jobs in business, technology, agriculture, and other industries. He supports working more closely with colleges, workplace development organizations, and high schools to develop STEM education and job training for high-wage tech jobs. Estes wants to see an incarceration reduction strategy implemented that diverts those who need mental health and addiction services out of jail and into sobering and other service centers, reducing the number of prison beds needed.
Estes is running against Kathy Kershner, a former commissioned officer in the Navy and the current chair of the Whatcom County Republican Party. She was a member of the Whatcom Council County from 2010 to 2014. Her campaign focuses include preserving agricultural heritage and ensuring water access.
Estes is the clear progressive choice in this race.
