Carrie Hesch
Please support Carrie Hesch in her run for position 1 in LD 26, around Bremerton and Gig Harbor.
Come and pick up a pack of 10 postcards with stamps and instructions from my front porch, 8824 NE New London Ct, off Finch. Write to encourage local voters to vote for her.
– We also have cards to write to folks in other states to flip senate seats.
We need more people in power who share our values to make laws. Then we can get bills through that protect us and enrich our lives.
She is running against Jesse Young for Position 1 in LD26, the district including Bremerton and Gig Harbor. She is a Progressive. She raised her children in Gig Harbor and works in a correctional center. She is endorsed by many, including Derek Kilmer: https://carriehesch.com/
What’s Wrong with Young?
Jesse Young’s MLK Day speech was all about him being attacked by Black people: https://youtu.be/d4dNKhfPWrM (more here)
He is abusive to staffers, and the House took it seriously enough that ‘the accounts of misbehavior by Young were “credible and serious” enough to restrict him from working with a legislative assistant for at least a year. The House also barred him from having a state-funded district office for at least a year, though Young said he closed his district office voluntarily.’
