Political Representatives to the Poulson Compound
In an effort to educate the little ones at home as to some of the structure of local politics...
We live in the 18th Legislative District of the State of Washington. We send two representatives and one senator to Olympia, WA to serve us in state matters. At the moment, our representives are Tom Mielke and Ed Orcutt. Our state senator is Joseph Zarelli.
The executive branch in the state is headed by elected official too. In Washington that is Governor Gary Locke.
We also send representatives to the United States Congress. Washington sends one representative from each Congressional District in Washington. We live in Congressional District 3. Our representative is Brian Baird. Washington sends two Senators to the United States Senate. They are elected by everyone in the state. Our two Senators are Maria Cantwell and Patty Murray.
We also elect a President and Vice President to represent us in the executive branch. Currently, that is George W. Bush and Richard B. Cheney.
