The Common Citizens' Voting Guide

Democracy in Election Process and the Respect for Mother Nature Committee of Washington finally got tired of seeing all of these fake progressive voting guides on the internet and decided to create a reliable one.  We will only endorse real economic or environmental progressives, not Democratic Party hacks, "Boll Weevils" and "Blue Dogs."  In fact, we prefer third parties or independents over those who identify with major parties, but sometimes that option is just not available because of the dearth of alternative candidates, so we consider all parties for our picks.  This blog was created on August 1, 2014, and our first official election endorsement is, as follows:

The Environment & Federal Way

If elected to Council, I will propose an Environmental Mapping Project,  maybe with a different name but the same effect, as this will put increased focus on Federal Way's environmental standards, including the quality of water, sewer and storm drainage infrastructure, littering and graffiti problems, contingency plans for natural disasters, and so forth.  The list, of course, could be in the scores, but you get the idea. My plan will include putting this new agency under an existing commission, or perhaps making it a separate commission unto itself, and dividing Federal Way into 20-or-so equal geographical areas, not divided evenly by population, but by square mileage or some other spatial measure.  Each of these twenty areas will then have an environmental steward of its very own, which would essentially be a volunteer position, although regular stipends would be paid by the City.  Stewards would be responsible for researching information pertine...
