By Bryan BissellDemocrat Phyllis Huster of Maple Valley has announced that she will challenge Senate Deputy Minority Leader Cheryl Pflug (R-Maple Valley) in the 5th Legislative District, which covers the Sammamish Plateau and I-90 corridor east of Seattle.
Mulick has the details on Huster's campaign, which will kick off on April 20 followed by a series of town hall meetings on education, transportation, health care and the economy. She says feedback from those events will drive her agenda and platform.
