MARY’S PICS PRIMARY NOVEMBER 2022

 

U S SENATE         Tiffany Smiley – Patti Murray is Biden’s right hand girl. Tiffany went up against the US Army to support her husband and is capable of fighting the establishment

 

U S REPRESENTATIVE

3RD DISTRICT       Joe Kent –Wants to clean up the voter process and strengthen America. Nothing can be controlled by the voters until the voting process is clean and we have a strong country again. The EU, Russia, Iran, the UN etc. do not have our best interests at heart.

SECRETARY OF STATE      Write-in Brad Klippert. The D is far left and Juie is for ranked voting the better to cheat at elections.

 

LEGISLATIVE DISTRICTS

               2

               POSITION 1         Andrew Barkis unopposed

THURSTON COUNTY ASSESSOR   Dave Kolar –

THURSTON COUNTY AUDITOR    Sal Militello

THURSTON COUNTY CLERK          Linda Enlow – less extreme than opponent

COUNTY COMMISSIONER             Vivian Eason – The incumbent is for the boondoggle new courthouse somewhere friends can profit and other wonky ideas. I know Vivian personally from Emergency training. She is much better.

THURSTON COUNTY CORONER AND PROSECUTING ATTORNEY ARE RUNNING UNOPPOSED

THURSTON COUNTY SHERIFF       Derek Sanders – not impressed with the amount of crime etc.

THURSTON COUNTY TREASURER               Flip a coin. I don’t trust the incumbent and know nothing abut the opposition.

 

MEASURES

This increase spending. Repeal on principle.

THURSTON COUNTY INCREASE IN PORT AND COUNTY COMMISSIONERS

The districts are in a pie shape now, so Olympia etc. control all three districts, especially since they are voted on by the whole county. Any change should be each district elects it's own commissioner and the districts create to allow rural voters NOOOOOOOOOOOO on both.
