2001 Candidate Evaluations

The Municipal League has been rating candidates for public office since 1911 based on four criteria: Involvement, Effectiveness, Character and Knowledge. The League ratings are widely respected and provide the only independent non-partisan, non-agenda driven evaluation of candidates.

This year our citizens have evaluated candidates for selected county, port, city and school district races in King County. Candidate interviews and ratings were completed during August and ratings are now available to help voters make the very best choice in the primary and general elections.

Results for 2001
