I am writing in enthusiastic support of Jamie Stephens election to the San Juan County Council from District 3.

I’ve had the pleasure of working alongside Jamie Stephens on many projects on Lopez Island, and I’m once again delighted to be working with Jamie as he seeks to serve us all on the newly streamlined county council.

Jamie has distinguished himself both as a volunteer and an elected representative. He is a tireless worker and demonstrates sensitivity to organizational needs as well as creativity in solving problems. He interacts well with his colleagues; he is perceptive, empathetic, articulate, polite, informed, and deeply committed to the county and its residents.

Due to the many changes with the council, we need an experienced and proven leader who brings dedication and integrity to the council. This leader is Jamie Stephens.

Without hesitation, I endorse Jamie Stephens. Please give him your most thoughtful consideration, and join me in voting for Jamie.
