Editorial: Lovick worthy of full term in state Senate for 44th
By The Herald Editorial Board
The new legislative district boundaries adopted this year made notable changes for the 44th Legislative District. The district kept its base communities of Mill Creek and Snohomish but lost the city of Lake Stevens and neighborhoods just south of 20th Street SE but added communities around North Creek, Maltby, Clearview and Cathcart as well as the region between Echo Lake Road and High Bridge Road.
44th Legislative District, Senate
The incumbent, Sen. John Lovick, D-Mill Creek, was appointed to the Senate in late 2021 to fill a vacancy. He is challenged by Jeb Brewer, a Republican from Snohomish.
Prior to his appointment to the Senate, Lovick served twice in the state House, from 1999 to 2007 and from 2016 to 2021. Lovick also was elected to office as Snohomish County sheriff, Snohomish County executive and on the Mill Creek City Council. He previously worked with the Washington State Patrol for 31 years and in the U.S. Coast Guard. Lovick has volunteered as a youth sports coach, in classrooms and as a mentor.
