Port of Everett, Dist. 1: Simpson dedicated, qualified

David Simpson has proven to be a dedicated and highly capable asset to the Port of Everett. David works hard to ensure the port brings vitality to the Everett economy, while also supporting the well-being of its workers.

David’s thorough understanding of the complex issues faced by the port and his outstanding commitment to environmental stewardship make him the best and most qualified candidate for this position. I will be voting for David Simpson this election, and I encourage all voters of Port District 1 to do the same.
