Having entered my third and final year of service on the BOG, I continue to be pleased with all of the positive changes at the WSBA: new and improved leadership, more balanced governance, more transparent and rigorously debated finances, and much-improved focus on the needs and interests of WSBA Members throughout the organization. When the WSBA functions well, everyone benefits, including the public. </div><div><br></div><div>Please help us continue to consolidate and build on these improvements by supporting the election of the above three candidates. </div><div><br></div><div>Please vote for them immediately (see below) if you're in their district, and more importantly, please use email, phone, text and all other means to actively encourage others in their districts to vote. </div><div><br></div><div><b>EVERY VOTE COUNTS:</b> These races are usually won or lost by just a handful of votes. </div><div><br></div><div><b>EMAIL BALLOTS:</b> The WSBA emailed all ballots on March 13. Voting ends April 1.
