Wiggins deserves vote

I am writing this letter to the voters in this area asking that you re-elect Charlie Wiggins to the Washington State Supreme Court. I have known Justice Wiggins for many years, first as a practicing attorney, then as an accomplished appellate lawyer and, most recently, as a justice on the Supreme Court.

Justice Wiggins is blessed with a keen intellect, an exceptional grasp of the law and a tireless work ethic. If Justice Wiggins were to fall short of the necessary votes, it would be a great loss to the people of this state. The Supreme Court itself would be diminished in his absence.

I urge you to re-elect Justice Wiggins to the Supreme Court of the state of Washington.

Judge Philip Thompson, Washington State Court of Appeals, retired
