Ritchie for State Representative

I'm running for state legislature because our state needs consensus builders who will work together, and not be reflexively partisan.

From the Seattle Times: "Ritchie rises above the pack in his willingness to embrace disparate ideas to alleviate cost of living hardships to residents — regardless of the side of the political aisle from which they come." "I will do whatever I can to make sure we’re continuing to support middle class living wage jobs … no matter what party or who is in the office.”

Here's who The Seattle Times editorial board recommends for Legislative District 5, Position 1 | Editorial The Maple Valley Democrat’s focus on affordability as a former business owner and advocate for the disabled rises above a talented list of candidates.

Primary election time has arrived and ballots are in the mail. There are a lot of good candidates running for office in the 5th LD but what makes me stand out is my commitment to middle class, living wage jobs. I will work with anyone regardless of their party or their office, to help build an economy that supports the middle class. I am committed to affordable housing, supporting our public schools, preserving the environment and protecting women's healthcare choices. I've been endorsed by the Seattle Times. I hope to be able to earn your vote.

Proud to announce that my campaign for state legislature has been endorsed by the Washington Realtors Association. The WA Realtors play an integral role in solving the housing crisis. I'm looking forward to working together in Olympia!
