Dear Readers,

I have known Jamie Stephens for nearly 20 years now and I continue to appreciate, among other things, his significant and consistent dedication to the community over that period of time. In addition to serving as the Chair of the County Council, Jamie has served on and worked with innumerable local boards.

Regarding the upcoming nonpartisan County Council election, we are surprised at how many people have made up their minds because of who they have labeled as the "liberal" or the "conservative" candidate, with out really looking at what the candidates stand for and what they have actually done.

In the upcoming election, voters countywide will be casting their ballots for County Council members. I realize that people who live on Orcas and Lopez might not be very familiar with Bob Jarman from San Juan Island.

I worked with Bob for almost 30 years, first in a small company, then in a very large one. I also watched Bob in a supervisory position. Bob is a hardworking, honest, straightforward individual who is willing to share his opinion but also willing to listen to yours. Bob is a great choice for county Council.

Thank you,

Barry Madan

As your former County Council Member I strongly recommend retaining Rick Hughes as the Orcas representative on the San Juan County Council. He was overwhelmingly elected to fill this position last November. Based upon his thoughtful and balanced approach to County government to date, Rick Hughes deserves to be re-elected this April.

Our leaders in Olympia have issued a statement endorsing Lovel Pratt for the San Juan Island residency district. It hews closely to Ms. Pratt's principal campaign talking point: her connections and advocacy for County issues in Olympia.
