Let the endorsements begin

The 2018 primary election is a mere 55 days away. As such we can expect the list of endorsements from local groups to steadily trickle in. Among the first to publish a formal list of candidates they support are the Young Democrats of Clark County. None of their endorsements should come as a surprise as most races boast a single Democratic candidate. The 3rd Congressional race, however, offers three Democrats up to run against incumbent Rep. Jaime Herrera Beutler, R-Battle Ground.

The YDCC chose to back Carolyn Long.

14th Legislative District, Position 1: Sasha Bentley
