The Daily News editorial board today announced its endorsement of David for Kelso City Council. After meeting with him earlier in the month, the editors felt David was a "quick study" and "an agent of responsible change," admonishing Kelso voters that they "would be ill-served by putting any of his three challengers in his at-large seat."

As voters begin to receive their primary ballots in early August, the paper appears to encourage David's election not only in the primary, but also in the general election taking place in November. Interestingly, this site agrees with their assessment!
