Ed Wolfe is exceptionally qualified, having formerly served in the United States Army and as Deputy Assistant Secretary of State (with the rank of Ambassador). He also founded a local law firm in Kitsap County in 1997, and was both a Superior Court Arbitrator and Judge Pro Tem in Kitsap County.

I most admire Ed for his selfless volunteer work and commitment to empowering young people in this community.  He was a founding member of the Boys & Girls Club, an organization focused on enabling young people, to reach their full potential as productive, caring and responsible citizens. As a member of CSTOCK, which offers Kitsap youth opportunities to develop their talents in theatre arts, I have seen firsthand the kind of impact that specialized programs can have on the youth of our county.

As the VP of Sales/Marketing at Paladin Data Systems, I was aware of Ed Wolfe’s unwavering commitment to maintaining our environment. Ed’s support of Paladin’s EKO-System designed for the Natural Resource industry’s conservation projects proved to be valuable in sustaining Washington State’s environment.

Ed’s commitment to community was recognized when his district overwhelmingly supported him in the primary with nearly 54 percent of the vote. Central Kitsap has made their choice for county commissioner — that choice is Ed Wolfe. Those of us in the rest of the county should enthusiastically support their choice by voting for him as well.
