EVERETT — Incumbent Sid Logan and Janet St. Clair were leading in the race for the District 1 seat on the Snohomish County Public Utility District’s board of commissioners.

Three nonpartisan commissioners oversee the Snohomish County PUD, the second-largest publicly owned utility in the Pacific Northwest. The commission sets utility rates, directs policy and hires a general manager.

District 1 covers the northern half of the county, including Everett, Marysville, Arlington, Granite Falls, Stanwood and Darrington, as well as Camano Island in Island County.

The state will continue counting ballots throughout the week. Snohomish County will certify election results by Aug. 18, and statewide results will be certified by Aug. 21. The top two candidates will advance to the Nov. 3 general election.

Commissioners make $38,856 annually.
