Burner Endorses Greene

Darcy Burner has endorsed Mark Greene for Newcastle City Council, supporting Greene again as she and one of her top Congressional Campaign assistants did in 2012 regarding Greene's Lieutenant Governor campaign.  The female assistant to Burner signed Mark's L.G. petition at the Washington State Labor Union Convention in May of '12.  Unfortunately, the W.S.L.U. endorsed Suzan DelBene over Burner that month, and Brad Owen over Greene, even though Owen snubbed their convention by not attending it.

Burner is well known to Newcastle, as she debated Congressman Dave Reichert in Newcastle during her run for Congress in the 8th Congressional District in 2006, and she ran in 2008 as well when Newcastle was still part of the 8th (also against Reichert, but N.P.R. is not sure whether Burner and Reichert appeared together at any forum or debate in Newcastle in '08). Newcastle has recently been positioned in the radically revised (redistricted) 9th District (Adam Smith is Newcastle's congressman, now).

Note about City meetings:  N.P.R. is expected to post reports about the recent Council meeting and today's Planning Commission meeting sometime in the afternoon of 2/21/2013, probably before 3:00 P.M.
