Mary Margaret Haugen is a life-long Island County citizen; so she understands better than most our unique transportation situation and island life.

Mary Margaret stared and ran a small business for 20 years; so she understands better than most what it takes, including the joys and frustration, to be in business.

Mary Margaret is a former school board member; so she understands education better than most, both as a patron of the schools her four children attended and as a leader in the school district to improve the education for all.

Mary Margaret has been in the legislature since 1983 and in the senate since 1993 rising to be the most senior of senators. That means she has the knowledge and power to get things done for the citizens of the 10th District.

Mary Margaret has earned the respect of the citizens of the 10th District and the state as a whole.

I am proud to have supported her since her first run for the legislature in 1982. Please join me in helping to re-elect Mary Margaret Haugen to the senate of the State of Washington.
