Seattle Times endorses State Rep. Pollet for re-election in 46th District

Our news partner the Seattle Times has endorsed Democratic State Rep. Gerry Pollet for re-election in the 46th District.

In an August 10 editorial, the Times said this:

“Pollet is an environmental activist and public-health instructor at the University of Washington. The Democrat has represented the district, which includes Northeast Seattle, Lake Forest Park and Kenmore, since 2011."

and this...

"Challenger Stephanie Heart Viskovich is a Libertarian activist in the medical-marijuana industry. But during a meeting with this editorial board, she lacked insight into issues such as the state’s McCleary education-funding settlement and Sound Transit 3."

The other 46th Legislative District representative, Democrat Jessyn Farrell, is running unopposed.
