Candidates Filed For Washington Offices in Palouse Region

** NOTE: See updated candidate information for Whitman County here: http://tinyurl.com/3wahf5f

Offices open for election and candidates filed include the following positions in the Palouse region. Primary election, August 16, 2011; general election, November 8, 2011. Official Washington State election records sites show no candidates filed for a surprising number of positions. Which is noteworthy since Washtington State's town council members are allowed to perform jobs and be paid wages for up to $18,000 per year (in addition to council member wages) for the town's they represent, according to sources at Rockford  City Hall. Rockford's town council members are currently considering council-member-wage increases, http://tinyurl.com/6849zkw.
