ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Proposed Charter Amendment No. 22 would allow nonpartisan county candidates to bypass the August primary and go directly to the November general election when two or fewer candidates file. Sponsor Cathie Garber says the change mirrors existing state law and could have saved more than $75,000 in the 2022 election cycle alone. Opponents argue removing the primary disadvantages challengers and reduces voter information. The amendment passed the Charter Review Commission 11-4. https://clarkcountytoday.com/story/proposed-charter-amendment-no-22-concerning-clarification #ClarkCounty #Election2026 #CharterAmendment #WashingtonState #LocalGovernment #VotersPamphlet #PrimaryElection #CountyCharter #Politics #ClarkCountyToday
