The four include Christopher Melly, Curtis G. Johnson, Erik Rohrer and William Payne. More than 150 citizens attended the debate at the Sequim Prairie Grange. The day also featured a debate of three Republican candidates who hope to replace Congressman Norm Dicks, who declined to run again. Ike Eichner, Doug Cloud and Jesse Young each outlined strategies for improving the economy in District 6.
