Anderson has experience, fit for District Court judge post

I served as a district court judge in Snohomish County for 44 years. I got to know this community and its values very well during that time. Mary Anderson reflects those values perfectly.

Mary is from Snohomish County. She has been here for over 40 years. As a judge pro tem, she has presided over civil and criminal cases. She has also served as a trial attorney, having worked at almost every level of our court system. Mary is highly credentialed and experienced in the law. She’s also the only candidate in the race who has argued before our state Supreme Court or has appellate court experience. She also successfully brought a class action lawsuit against the state Department of Transportation regarding the I-90 toll charges. She won that case and protected people’s constitutional rights as a result.

I enthusiastically endorse and support Mary Anderson for Snohomish County Superior Court Judge, Pos. 17, and urge others to support her campaign and cast their vote for her on Election Day.
