In the current political climate of fracture and distrust, we, the chairs of the Snohomish County Republican and Democratic parties, want the public to know we have given the sole endorsement for one non-partisan candidate: Rico Tessandore for Snohomish County Superior Court.
Both parties agree Rico is the candidate with unmatched experience, a proven 10-year judicial record of impartiality and integrity, a long-standing history of serving our community and a reputation for humility, hard work and a balanced perspective.
The voters should know: both parties can agree in a non-partisan judicial race. We can pursue our legislative agendas in partisan races; but in judicial races we need judges we can trust to respect the law on the books, and never bend it to special interests. Rico Tessandore is not only the consensus candidate — he is the one both our parties agree is the most qualified and proven candidate for this important office.
