Re-Elect Commissioner Shon Smith

In county government, it takes time to get your feet underneath you, much less make a lasting difference. A new commissioner spends their first few years getting to know the issues and how county government operates. Chelan County has many important decisions to make and projects to complete in the next four years. Having an experienced commissioner in place can make a big difference.

I’m a safe bet for voters because they have had time to get to know me and my leadership style. For the past four years, people have watched me make decisions and take on many projects. They have seen me throughout the county, attending various meetings and events. I have been the chairman of the board for the past two years. People know me and they know what they can expect a hands-on leadership approach.

There is a big difference between county and city government. Rural people living in the unincorporated areas of Chelan County need representation. As someone who lives in an unincorporated area, I recognize that difference. I am here for all of Chelan County, but the rural residents remain a priority.
