Twenty-five people crowded into Neil’s Clover Patch Café in Bayview on Sunday to hear from candidates seeking election to local offices this November.

Speakers included Karla Jacks, candidate for Island County commissioner District 3; Ana Maria Nuñez, incumbent for Island County treasurer; and Nick Petrish, who is vying for State Representative in the 10th Legislative District.

The three candidates each talked for about 10 minutes, then responded to questions from the crowd.

“The presentations and questions were lively, and those in the audience applauded frequently to comments and responses from the candidates,” wrote Carolyn Tamler, in an email to The Record.

An Island County Democrats event, Tamler was an organizer and said she was pleased with the turnout.
