Statement: My name is Marcus Barton and I
would be honored to serve as your representative on the Snohomish County
Council.
Before seeking office, I served in the United States Army as a supply and
logistics clerk. I currently work as a Logistics Manager for a recycling company.
One of my many strengths is the ability to manage multiple tasks at once and
the military trained me to prioritize. I have always been the person that was
called when a solution could not be found. I want to bring my unique eye for
detail and ability to problem solve to the council.
This is my first political campaign, however I feel that I have the skill set
and passion to serve my community.
Our communities are not being properly represented. Your voice on the county
council has been replaced with that of a career politician.
I want to bring your opinions back to the council. I will bring integrity,
honesty and accountability back to local politics. I want to find
solutions to these problems, and I look forward to learning how I can better
serve you.
