You are welcome to post both positive and not-so-positive attributes about the candidate as they related to their position on supporting liberty as well as issues relating to their campaign.

State: WA
District: 20 Legislative
Incumbent: Richard Debolt
Other Primary Candidates: TOP TWO PRIMARY
Non-Incumbent Candidates from Other Parties: None Announced
Relevant poll numbers: None.
Overall Race Profile Rating: [Rating TBD]
Miscellaneous Pros/Cons
Key strong points: No Challenger. We will both be strong of fiscal liberty. I will be stronger on social liberty and civil liberty.
Unknown points for further research:
Possible weak points: Strong R district
Possible deal breakers: Not enough financial support. Democrat candidate enters the race and takes away my social liberty support.
Overall Rating:
Other campaign information:
Race Profile: Incumbent Richard Debolt. Republican. in office since 1998. Former House Minority Leader. I will be running as a Libertarian.
Campaign proposal. I get a Pledge website up and running. I will need to have two things happen. 1. The last day of official registration ends and there are no Democrats in the race. 2. I reach $10,000 in pledges by the last day of registration. If both of those things happen, I will immediately register my candidacy, have a money bomb for the pledges, and start an ad blitz. If neither, or just one of those two things happens, I will notify pledges to keep their money to give to other liberty candidates. I would be running as Libertarian against the Republican. In WA, we have top two, so if there is no democrat, I am guaranteed a 1 on 1 runoff clear through the General election.
