Candace Mumm deserved to win

What a surprise to learn that Candace Mumm lost the election for Spokane County Commissioner. She was the most qualified, experienced and articulate candidate.

Her debate performances demonstrated real thoughtfulness and understanding of issues facing our county. Furthermore, she had a very dedicated team running her campaign, people who believed in her as a person who listens to the people.

It is especially disheartening that all three Spokane County Commissioners are  conservative, as has been the case for several years since Bonnie Mager was on the commission.  They do not represent me and many  progressives. 

Candace would have been a intelligent voice on the commission. Spokane County has lost out on a great leader.
