Terry wins 10th LD nomination
By Bryan Bissell, PolitickerWA.com ReporterThe 10th Legislative District held its nomination meeting Thursday night at Skagit Valley Community College in Mt. Vernon where they officially endorsed Patricia Terry over Ann McDonald for the Democratic nomination for state House, position 2. The official weighted PCO count was 220 for Taylor and 13 for McDonald.
The 10th LD initially voted not to use the state Party's PCO vote nominating process, but changed their mind once they realized the state party would simply select the nominee if they failed to follow the rules. Ann McDonald announced last Friday that she would not participate in the nomination process following the revised decision.
"I don't need a group of three dozen party leaders to reaffirm my credentials as a Democrat," McDonald said in a statement to the South Whidbey Record.
Nevertheless, McDonald showed up to the nomination meeting and participated in full.
"She did show up," 10th LD Vice Chair Jan Helwig told PolitickerWA.com. "She did her whole speech, did her whole spiel, she even went over time in her speech."
The District also nominated Sen. Mary Margaret Haugen for re-election to the Senate and Tim Knue for state Representative, position1.
