  • Local Voters' Pamphlet
    WHATCOM COUNTY OFFICIAL LOCAL VOTERS’ PAMPHLET Primary - September 19, 2006 PublishedPublished byby thethe WhatcomWhatcom CountyCounty Auditor’sAuditor’s OfficeOffice —— www.co.whatcom.wa.us/auditorwww.co.whatcom.wa.us/auditor Dear Whatcom County Voters: In the November 2005 General Election, Whatcom County voters approved an amendment to the Whatcom County Charter that adds a duty on the Auditor to publish and distribute a Local Voters’ Pamphlet for primary and general elections. We are very excited that this is the first Local Voters’ Pamphlet in Whatcom County’s history! Inside you will find candidate’s photos and statements as well as statements on a ballot issue. Please review the Local Voters’ Pamphlet for details regarding voting in the primary, registering to vote, change of address, drop site locations and other important information. For the first time in Whatcom County we will be using a consolidated ballot for the Primary Election. Court decisions require a “pick-a-party” primary. The system requires you to select a party ballot if you wish to vote for candidates in a partisan office. You can only vote for the candidates of the one political party you select for the primary. Your privacy will be protected; the political party you choose for the primary will not go on record. Your opportunity to vote for candidates for non-partisan offices is not affected. Remember, this change applies only to the primary election. If you have not received your ballot fifteen (15) days prior to the election, please call the Elections Division of the Whatcom County Auditor’s Office at 360-676-6742 to have a replacement ballot mailed to you.

    Battleground Blog: Analyzing the 2006 U.S. Senate Campaign Blogs through the Lenses of Issue Ownership, Agenda setting, and Gender Differences Kristin N. English Thesis submitted to the faculty of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts In Communication John C. Tedesco, Chair Andrew Paul Williams Rachel L. Holloway May 7, 2007 Blacksburg, VA Keywords: Agenda setting, Issue Ownership, Gender Differences, Blogs, Senate Campaign, Incumbent/Challenger Strategies, Content Analysis. Copyright 2007, Kristin N. English Battleground Blog: Analyzing the 2006 U.S. Senate Campaign Blogs through the Lenses of Issue Ownership, Agenda setting, and Gender Differences Kristin N. English (ABSTRACT) The 2006 Congressional elections included some of the closest elections in recent history. Party control was on the line in both houses of Congress. As a result, candidate message strategies were subject to intense scrutiny by media and voters alike since each election played a significant role in determining which party would control the Senate. This thesis employs a content analysis of ten candidate-controlled blogs from five 2006 U.S. Senate elections to evaluate candidate issues, incumbent and challenger strategies, and message tactics used by the candidates to reach a wide classification of voters. The entire population of posts from the ten candidate blogs (N = 474) was included in this analysis. The thesis assesses candidate blog strategies and candidate gender differences through the theoretical perspectives of the issue ownership framework, agenda setting, and incumbent and challenger strategies. Findings show evidence of intercandidate agenda setting through blogs, general adherence to assumptions of the issue ownership framework, and offer foundations for future communication research focused on candidate blogs.

  • Introduction to the 2006 Voters' Pamphlet
    STATE OF WASHINGTON Voters’ Pamphlet General Election November 7, 2006 Published by the Office of the Secretary of State Introduction to the 2006 Voters’ Pamphlet Dear Voter, I express my heartfelt thanks to elementary school student Desirae Marion whose artwork is featured on the cover of this year’s Voters’ Pamphlet, and to high school student Amanda Murphy for her articulate essay on the opposite page. Both illustrate the power of a privilege that gives each of us our voice in government. As Washington voters, we may appreciate that power better than most. After our historic election for Governor in 2004, the top two candidates stood 46 ten-thousandths of 1 percent apart — and the extraordinary circumstances had only begun. I commend you for responding to the trials of that election in force and calling for changes that, above all else, guarantee your voice will be protected and secure. With your help, we have thoughtfully implemented improvements to reinforce the integrity of every election. Starting next year, Washington will hold its Primary in August instead of September. Ballots will reach our military and overseas citizens in time to be voted and returned before Election Day. County elections departments will also have more time to prepare for the November General Election. Washington continues to reduce the risk of voter fraud by ensuring that every person who casts a ballot is eligible to vote. With a new centralized voter registration database, we’ve cancelled 3,468 voter registration records of felons, 18,871 of the deceased, and 24,180 duplicates. In addition, voters who turn out at the polls are required to show identification.

We have kept polling places open, providing an option for nearly a fourth of all voters.

  • Maria Cantwell Enjoys Strong Lead Over Susan Hutchison
    Northwest Progressive Institute revolutionizing grassroots politics 8201 164th Avenue NE, Suite 200, Redmond, WA 98052-7615 PO Box 264, Redmond, WA 98073-0264 Phone: 425-310-2785 Fax: 425-256-3150 www.nwprogressive.org @nwprogressive PRESS RELEASE Thursday, May 24th, 2018 Democratic United States Senator Maria Cantwell currently has a sixteen point lead in her reelection bid over likely Republican opponent Susan Hutchison, according to a new statewide survey of likely Washington voters commissioned by the Northwest Progressive Institute. 52% of respondents said they would vote for Cantwell (who is seeking a fourth term), and 36% said they would vote for Hutchison if the election were being held now. 12% said they were not sure. Cantwell is facing a field of twenty-nine challengers, a dozen of whom identify as Republicans. Of the twelve Republicans, only Hutchison is well known. A former newscaster for KIRO 7, Hutchison ran against Dow Constantine for King County Executive in 2009 and lost. She later served as Chair of the Washington State Republican Party for several years. Conducted by Public Policy Polling, the survey of six hundred and seventy-five likely 2018 Washington State voters was in the field from May 22nd-23rd, 2018, using a blended methodology with automated phone calls to landlines and online interviews of cell phone only respondents. The poll has a margin of error of +/- 3.8% at the 95% confidence level. Last year, in a June 2017 survey of likely 2018 voters, NPI pitted Cantwell against former Attorney General Rob McKenna in a hypothetical matchup, finding that 53% would support Cantwell, while 40% would support McKenna.

SWANSON 37 PREAMBLE TO LOCAL VOTERS PAMPHLET Dear Voters: I am pleased to bring you the Local Voters Pamphlet for the 2006 General Election. This pamphlet is designed to provide information about candidates seeking to represent you, your tax dollars, and general public safety in Cowlitz County. I encourage you to take some time to read through the candidate and issue statements in order to familiarize yourself with them. In addition, the entire text of all measures has been reproduced. Many voters expressed anger and confusion over the 2006 Primary in Washington State, which discouraged voter participation across the state. While this low turnout is disheartening, it is also inspiring to see voters take the time to exercise their right to participate in a very important process. I want to extend a big thank you to those who cast a ballot in the 2006 Primary. Your participation elected Precinct Committee Officers and nominated major political party candidates to the General Election. It is my hope that you will find the 2006 Cowlitz County Local Voters Pamphlet useful and informative. Ballots will be in the mail by October 20, 2006. The best way to have your voice heard in your community is to vote in the November 7, 2006 General Election. Remember, Every Vote Counts! Kristina K.
