Did you know that FIVE of the nine seats on the Washington State Supreme Court are on our ballots this year?

As we head toward the November 3rd election, the future of our state’s environmental protections, labor rights, and civil liberties rests on who we choose for our highest court.

Let's break down the basics:
🏛️ The Composition: Our state Supreme Court has 9 Justices. They don't represent specific geographic districts—they are elected statewide, meaning every single voter in Kittitas County votes on every single seat.
⏳ The Terms: Justices are elected to 6-year, staggered terms in nonpartisan elections.
🎂 The Cap: Washington has a mandatory judicial retirement age of 75. This prevents lifetime political entrenchment and ensures a steady rotation of modern legal minds.

This election, we have a vital opportunity to protect a fair, progressive, and balanced court. Over the next few days, we’ll dive into how these judges get there—and exactly what we should look for on our ballots.

Stay tuned!

Washington’s 4th Congressional District is right in our backyard—and who represents it affects us all.

Washingtonians deserve leaders in Congress focused on practical, local results for our state, not outside political interests.

Here is Meghan Anderson’s Letter to the Editor from the Tri-City Herald on why local integrity and service matter in WA-04.

Kittitas County Voter Protection Rally! 🗳️✊

Kittitas County Democrats are proud to share an important county-wide event organized by our friends at Ellensburg Indivisible and Roslyn/Cle Elum Indivisible.

On Saturday, October 17th at Noon, Vote Early rallies will be held simultaneously in both the Lower County and the Upper County to stand up for the integrity of our election process. This is the very day that many ballots should land in your hands, making it a critical moment for our democracy.

An Important Note from the Organizers:
This is a strictly non-partisan event. The focus is purely on voter protection. This is not about specific candidates, political parties, or policy issues. This is about ensuring EVERY valid vote is cast safely and counted accurately.

We are calling on all members of our community—regardless of affiliation—who believe in the fundamental right to free and fair elections to join us.

Where & When:
🗓️ Saturday, October 17th
🕛 Noon (12:00 PM)

📍 Lower County Event: Ellensburg (Wildcat Way & University)

📍 Upper County Event: Roslyn/Cle Elum (Oakes & 1st)

Make a plan to show your support for our democratic process. Don't let the lack of a sign be the tiniest reason to stay on the sidelines—Indivisible will have plenty of signs ready for you!

Please follow this page and Ellensburg Indivisible or /Cle Elum Indivisible for final location announcements closer to the date. Let’s stand together!

🗳️ Looking for the ultimate guide to getting to know the candidates for the Washington State Supreme Court races? 🏛️

The League of Women Voters of Washington interviewed the candidates running for the high court! If you want to dive deep into their judicial philosophies, appellate experience, and how they plan to uphold our state’s strict ethical standards, this is the absolute best nonpartisan resource available before you mail in your ballot.

Don't guess on these critical, nonpartisan positions. Educate your vote before the ballots arrive later this week.

🌎 Indigenous Peoples’ Day — Honoring the First Peoples of This Land 🌿

Today we honor the enduring cultures, wisdom, and resilience of Indigenous peoples—across this continent and right here in Kittitas County, on the homelands of the Yakama Nation.

From language revitalization to environmental stewardship, Indigenous communities continue to shape our shared story with strength, dignity, and deep connection to the land. Their traditions are not relics of the past—they are living legacies that enrich our present and guide our collective future.

On this day, let’s commit to listening, learning, and taking action in solidarity with Indigenous voices.
Justice, respect, and representation must move beyond words—they must be our shared work.

Kwáanit ‘aa (Thank you)
