County council race: Low has represented district well

Elevent months ago, voters in east Snohomish County chose Sam Low in a special election to represent them on the County Council. Sam was an underdog, who truly connected with the voters and out-worked the competition for a well-deserved win.

Since being sworn in last November, Sam Low hasn’t stopped working of us! He is always available to East County voters, attending every community meeting possible, from Clearview to Maltby to Monroe to Gold Bar. Sam has represented us well as our voice in Everett. From fighting to save 25 acres near Wallace Falls as part of the Singletary Timber sale to savings millions of dollars by renovating the County Courthouse to actively working with Olympia for transportation solutions on U.S. 2 and Highway 522, Sam Low has proven his ability to get things done. His leadership and common-sense approach to government has earned him the respect of his colleagues on both sides of the aisle.

Sam has the support of Republicans, Democrats, independents, businesses, first responders, labor and most importantly, the residents of east county. Join me in voting to re-elect Sam Low to Snohomish County Council this November.
