PCO Appointment Nomination Meeting Announced
While we are deeply saddened by the loss of our State Senator, Bill Ramos, state statute requires us to move forward with filling his vacated seat by holding a nominating meeting within 45 days of Senator Ramos’ passing.
Each interested candidate must be a registered voter, identify as a democrat, and live within the 5th Legislative District. The appointment process will include a candidate forum on May 28th, via Zoom, and a nominating meeting on May 31st, in-person in Issaquah.
5th LD Democrat Precinct Committee Officers (PCOs) will nominate three candidates for possible appointment at the nominating meeting. These three candidates will appear before the King County Council on June 3rd for interviews and final selection of our new state senator.
Per state statute, if the vacancy might be filled by a current office holder in the legislature, we can conditionally nominate three additional candidates to fill that position at the same meeting. We will be taking this action at the May 31st meeting.
