June 13, 2011-Ellensburg, Washington: The Kittitas County Democratic Party invites candidates for non-partisan office and anyone interested in running in either non-partisan or partisan offices in the future to attend a training workshop on June 23 at 7:00 pm in the conference room of the Rodeo City Barbecue Restaurant. This hands-on, practical workshop features local presenters, including former Ellensburg City Councilman and Mayor Stan Bassett, Kittitas County Auditor Jerry Pettit, former Alaska campaign manager Steve Williams and others, who will share specific strategies that work. Traditionally, members of the party meet at 6:00 p.m. to share dinner and conversation and the public and workshop attendees are invited to come early for the meal.
Candidates who have applied for one of the seventy non-partisan offices in Kittitas County may also seek early endorsement by submitting a one page request for endorsement by June 22 at 5:00 pm. There is no requirement that a candidate running for non-partisan office identify as a Democrat in order to receive an endorsement. Endorsements are granted by vote of the Precinct Committee Officers in attendance at any meeting in which a vote for endorsement has previously been scheduled. The party may consider additional endorsement requests at the August and September meetings and candidates should immediately request consideration by the party now. Requests should be directed to Theresa Petrey, Chair, Kittitas County Democratic Central Committee, PO Box 1341, Ellesnburg, WA 98926, or via email to
