Everett Herald endorses Somers: Somers is better bet against volatile Sax

HeraldNet: Somers is better bet against volatile Sax:
"Somers is better bet against volatile Sax

Politics is often as much about style as substance, and that's the case in the race for the Snohomish County Council's District 5 seat.
The leading candidates to represent the east-county district, Republican incumbent Jeff Sax and Democratic former council member Dave Somers, clearly have differences in substance. Sax, backed by big campaign contributions from developers, puts a premium on private property rights. Somers, whose campaign has gotten most of its money from environmental and labor groups, argues for more controls on growth.
When it comes to style, the two actually share some of the same characteristics. Both are deeply principled, holding tight to their core beliefs. Both have reputations for being strong-willed, sometimes to the point of arrogance. Legitimate questions exist about their open-mindedness and approachability. We have reservations about both."


But they conclude that Somers is a better bet than Sax.
