Letter To The Editor – Fennessy has my Vote

Typewriter with paper reading "Letters to the Editor"

As a former District Cout Judge, I have often heard friends and family ask about how to vote in judicial races. Occasionally there is a race where I have provided a public endorsement and this year presents such a race. Tim Fennessy is running for re-election to Position 11 on the Spokane County Superior Court. After more than 33 years practicing law in Spokane, Judge Fennessy was elected to the bench in 2016. Since then he has served the community and is presently the Chief Criminal Judge. He is presently also the Presiding Judge, having been elected by his peers to a 2-year term that began in 2024.

I have known Judge Fennessy since law school and understand the trust and confidence shown by his benchmates when entrusting him with the duties of Presiding Judge. The Superior Court currently has 13 members in Spokane and 5 of them began their current position since 2022. All of the sitting Superior Court Judges have endorsed Tim and this is a time to vote for experience.

As your ballots arrive, I hope you will join me in Voting for Judge Fennessy!

Horrific behavior from a School Board Member

I am writing to express my deep concern regarding the ongoing unprofessional and harmful behavior of Deer Park School Board Director Ashby.

Every Committee and Board member I’ve encountered is eager to answer questions.
