PfA city council candidates Reba Harris and Zach Ellis came INCREDIBLY close to winning their seats: Reba by 76 votes and Zach by 86! Their sacrifices of time and money are genuinely appreciated and they had significant impacts on civic conversations in Poulsbo. Congratulations to Pam Crowe, who ran unopposed and will join Poulsbo's council! In NKSD School Board races, Stacy Mills won by a hefty margin and Terri Schumacher finished behind by only 87 votes! Many thanks to both Terri and Natasha Fecteau-Minger for stepping up as candidates. The forthcoming December/January issue of "The Wave" will have commentary on the elections, a review of 2023, and a look ahead to 2024.
