Greg Nance

(Prefers Democratic Party) statement appears human

Greg Nance is honored to represent Kitsap, the community that raised him. He’s fighting to fix our ferries, protect Puget Sound, and support working families.

He secured $42 million to modernize West Sound Tech and helped protect 680 acres of Kitsap forest from clearcutting. Supported by: Suquamish Tribe and Port Gamble S’Klallam Tribe; Washington State Labor Council (representing 600 unions and 500,000 members) – including teachers, nurses, and firefighters.

Lance Byrd

(Prefers Republican Party) statement likely human

Lance is a longtime Kitsap resident with deep family ties and strong community roots. A firm believer in fiscal responsibility, he insists government must live within its means so working families and small businesses can afford to live and prosper here. He will focus on Kitsap voters’ top priorities: making housing more affordable, reducing crime, supporting law enforcement, lowering the cost of living, balancing the budget, and providing real help and shelter for the mentally ill. Lance will protect education funding and essential services while respecting Washington voters’ clear, repeated decision against a state income tax.
