2007 Local Non-Partisan Elections - Vote Count, So Far
The membership of the Whatcom Democrats met with candidates seeking the endorsement of the party at our regular monthly membership meeting, Wednesday, June 13th, 2007. Candidates were considered individually, rather than against any opponents they may have, which resulted in more than one candidate endorsed in some races. A majority of the members present and voting deemed the candidates listed below to support Democratic principles, ideals, and the platform, and received our party's endorsement. Endorsement Policy
All positions up for election in 2007 are local and non-partisan. For a full list of candidates running for office in Whatcom County in 2007, see the Whatcom County Auditor
