Washougal resident Anne Haller offers her support for Marie Gluesenkamp Perez
Editor’s note: Opinions expressed in this letter to the editor are those of the author alone and do not reflect the editorial position of ClarkCountyToday.com
The contrast between the two candidates for the 3rd Congressional District could not be more drastic. Marie Perez has proven over the last two years that she is an independent voice for our communities. She has worked hard to represent the many stakeholders in this district and has brought over $21 million federal dollars to our area for needed improvements and projects. I don’t agree with all her positions, but she is not owned by any party and is a moderate working with both parties in DC.
Joe Kent is a puppet for Trump and the extreme far right. In the recent debate he admitted he spent the last two years campaigning while being funded by the Republican party. Kent has tried to moderate his extreme views, but he is still the extremist candidate we’ve gotten to know. He is an election denier, conspiracy theorist, anti-abortionist and a supporter of Project 2025. He justifies J6 and thinks we don’t care about the insurrections who tried to stop the peaceful transfer of power.
I encourage you to do your own research and look closely at the candidate’s history and actions. One offers a rational, thoughtful approach to governance while the other continues to spread disinformation and supports the right’s extreme hate filled agenda.
