Notably, they chose to give a sole endorsement for state House, position 2, choosing party nominee Patricia Terry (D-Camano Island) outright over fellow challenger Ann McDonald (D-Greenbank).

The top Democrat in the "top two" primary will likely advance to the general election along with the incumbent, Rep. Barbara Bailey (R-Oak Harbor).
