| Shoreline resident Heather Fralick was elected to preside over the meeting of Washington's members of the Electoral College |
“It was my privilege to represent the State of Washington with an amazing group of electors on this historic occasion,” said Ms. Fralick. “I can't even begin to express my gratitude to all that made this possible.”
“I believe that President Obama will continue to lead our country forward as we struggle with the numerous economic, social and political challenges of our time,” Ms. Fralick added.

Secretary of State Reed remarked, “The Electoral College is a key step in how America chooses its president and vice president. While it lacks the attention and excitement of last November’s popular election, the Electoral College vote carries the same impact.”
“I am honored to bear witness today to the election of President-elect Barack Obama and Vice President-elect Joe Biden. This ceremony, as with Electoral College votes across the country, reflects our dedication to the democratic process and commitment to open and transparent government.”

"We were lucky enough to have support from our homeroom classes and the teachers in those classes took about five minutes of their day to teach their class a specific dance. Then our video students came into those classes and spent five minutes filming the dances from multiple angles using multiple cameras.," Mitchell said.

“This committee’s work is more important than ever, because of the toll the Great Recession has had on Washington’s children and families,” Kagi said. “Child poverty has increased, sadly, and there is greater strain on our safety net after several rounds of state budget cuts. It’s time to recognize the devastating effect the recession and budget cuts have had on our families, schools, and communities.”
“Washington is nationally recognized as an early learning leader, and we intend to remain at the forefront,” Kagi said. “Research has shown that even minor investments in quality early learning efforts improve children’s chances of success in school and in life. We can’t afford to miss that window of opportunity.”

“Our 9-1-1 dispatchers already have the equipment to receive text messages, but right now wireless carriers don’t provide this service,” said Executive Constantine. “Once they do, we can provide better emergency response to people with hearing or speech disabilities.”
