23rd Legislative District
Representative Christine Rolfes is now our 23rd LD Senator. We must
complete an appointment process to fill the House seat that she has
vacated. That process "opened" today, meaning that persons interested
in applying for that seat can now obtain an application from the Kitsap
County Democrats Chair, Michael Arnold, by emailing Michael at
kitsapchair@yahoo.com.
The application deadline is Friday, August 26. The Special Caucus at
which Precinct Committee Officers (PCOs) will choose the top three
nominees for this open seat will be held on Sunday, September 11, at
2:30 p.m. at the Eagle's Nest, a facility at the Kitsap County
Fairgrounds. This Caucus is open to the public. The
three nominees chosen by the PCOs will be forwarded to the Kitsap
County Commissioners. The Commissioners will then chose one of these
three nominees to be the 23rd LD's newest Representative. Please feel free to contact the 23rd LD Democrats Chair, Kol Medina, at chair@kitsap23rd.com or the Kitsap County Democracts Chair, Michael Arnold, at kitsapchair@yahoo.com, if you have any questions. |

THANK YOU!! With the support of Democrats across the 23rd Legislative District, we are returning our experienced and dedicated delegation of legislators and elected officials to office. Now is the right time for us to maintain continuity so that we are better able to navigate the economic situation which faces us.
We need to continue to provide our support and to encourage others to come to the table to offer constructive solutions. Negativity will not lead us forward. We need to come together as a community and realize that the issues that face us are beyond any one Party. It's through dialogue that new doors will open.
We are most likely looking at a paradigm shift in how services are provided, but let's do so in a thoughtful manner.
Together, we can make great things happen! |
