I plan to roll up my shirt sleeves and work hard to earn the support of the voters in the 25th District and win this election!?
?Shelly is a team builder and a job creator,” Dammeier said. “I really admire her ability to work across our community to make important job projects a reality.? Olympia needs leaders like Shelly to put people back to work and help us out of this recession.?
