Election update: Stevens gets new manager
The former deputy prosecutor challenging his boss for the top prosecutor's spot has a new campaign manager.
Rae Lynn Conger will manage Dave Stevens' campaign against Prosecutor Steve Tucker, Stevens announced today. His former manager Michael Cathcart, left the campaign to become campaign manager for Michael Baumgartner, who is running for state Senate in the 6th district against Chris Marr.
Conger has a bachelor's degree in communications from Eastern Washington University. In 2006, she spoke with The Spokesman-Review about her objection to identify her race on forms or applications. Read that story here.
Stevens was fired by Tucker last month. He's challenging the dismissal through his union.
