  • Incumbent Carol Frazey is a small business owner and former teacher who is running for re-election to the Whatcom County Council. Her platform is focused on developing youth health programs in nutrition, education, and the environment, increasing access to treatment programs to reduce incarceration rates, and supporting affordable housing. She is seeking to implement countywide broadband service, create a water protection plan for Lake Whatcom, and build a carbon-negative economy in the County.

    Frazey is running against David Ramirez, Bill LaFreniere, and Brett Bonner. Ramirez, who has been endorsed by the Whatcom County Republicans, is running to support individuals' rights to use, possess, and dispose of private property as they see fit. LaFreniere is running on a variety of conservative viewpoints from fighting unions to increasing mining and other industries, calling the earth's resources "inexhaustible."

    In late May, Bonner confessed to sexually harassing a Whatcom County woman online while "blackout drunk." At the time he was the Whatcom County Republican vice chair. The confession came too late to withdraw from the election, but Bonner has thankfully suspended his campaign.

    Carol Frazey is by far the best candidate in this race.
