A young “family values” conservative with a glowing résumé was named Thursday to succeed former Rep. Richard Curtis in Washington’s 18th Legislative District.
Four of the six commissioners in Clark and Cowlitz counties voted to appoint Jaime Herrera, 29, a Prairie High School graduate working as a legislative aide for U.S. Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers, R-Colville.
“Every step I have taken since high school has been preparing me for this,” she said at Thursday’s hearing, her voice cracking slightly. “There is not a job in the world I would rather have.”"*
