Shelly Short
(Prefers Republican Party)statement appears human
Experience we can trust. For 32 years, I have worked
tirelessly for folks in the 7th District. Thank you for entrusting
me to represent you for the past eighteen years. I am incredibly honored.
My focus has been, and will continue to be, to fight for our conservative
values, our liberties, our way of life and to stand against government’s
appetite for endless taxes and unchecked spending. I will continue to battle
state government when it stands in the way of our prosperity and the prosperity
of our children! People matter, our families matter, our small businesses and
communities matter.
There is no greater priority to me than protecting the foundations of the 7th District. I will continue to champion farming and ranching,
management of our natural resources and wildlife, local healthcare, student
centered education and access to water. I’ve built relationships, educated
legislators and challenged the status quo in order to be a more effective
leader for the 7th District.
As your Senator, I will continue to use my experience to fight for you. I would
be honored to have your support, and I ask for your vote.

(Prefers Independent Party)statement appears human
My name is Ronald L McCoy and reside in Chewelah WA. This District was not built by Lobbyist and special interest groups, it was built on the backs of hardworking men and women working in the fields, raising Cattle and all kinds of animals and orchards and other crops for the food supply, forest and mining. Men and women who served our country through dedication and loyalty to our Nation. I will be focused first and upmost on investing in job creation and programs that put our younger generation to work and give them a sense of hope. Strengthen our rural infrastructure, taxes that burden our small Business owners and everyday citizens, I am a retired US Navy Veteran, former Mayor and Chewelah City Council member. I have Spent decades advocating for Rural Communities and serving Northeast Washington and now I’m running to bring strong honest leadership to the 7th District. I believe in moving forward without losing who we are while supporting and investing in common sense solutions to everyday living in rural Northeast Washinton. Good government is built from bottom up not top down
