Children and schools were winners on November 4th.

Governor Chris Gregoire will continue her work to build an education system that prepares every student for life after high school, whether it’s college, job training or work. Her re-election ensures that the work of the Basic Education Finance Task Force will receive the full attention it deserves.

Voters solidly defeated Initiative 985, ensuring funding for schools will not be cut for transportation.

For Superintendent of Public Instruction, Randy Dorn will unseat Terry Bergeson. We applaud Terry Bergeson’s twelve years of tireless leadership and dedication. We are confident the new superintendent will work for the best interests of children and schools.

Overall, 30 of 38 of our endorsed candidates won.
