Southwest Washington voters will have an opportunity to attend a candidate fair to hear from candidates on the ballot of the Nov. 5 general election. The event, titled “Win Washington,’’ is being hosted by Firmly Planted Action, an organization founded by Clark County resident Heidi St. John that is devoted to “reviving a culture of passionate, informed civic engagement.’’
The candidate fair is scheduled for Mon., Oct. 21 at 6 p.m. Doors will open at 5:30 p.m. at the Firmly Planted Family Homeschool Resource Center, located at 14001 SE 1st St. in Vancouver. The event is free and open to the public. No registration is required.
“We are really hoping people who are undecided or on the fence would come,’’ St. John told Clark County Today. “The goal is to get as much good information about the candidates out to the public as possible.’’
In promotion of the event, organizers stated that “our state and nation are at stake. We need all hands on deck. Join us for a night hearing from the candidates, get to know their policies and find out how YOU can help win Washington!”
The candidates scheduled to appear include Dave Reichert (governor), Joe Kent (3rd Congressional District), Dan Matthews (lieutenant governor), Matt Hawkins (state auditor), Sharon Hanek (state treasurer), Jaime Herrera Beutler (commissioner of public lands), David Olson (state superintendent of public instruction), Dale Whitaker (secretary of state), John Ley (18th Legislative District, state representative), and Dave Stuebe (17th Legislative District, state representative).
