Statement: The Superior Court Judge presides over cases having significant impact upon individuals before the court. Child Custody, Divorce, Person Injuries, Business Disputes, Real Property Disputes and Criminal  cases are life altering to the persons appearing before the courts.  I believe I have brought to the position of Okanogan County Superior Court Judge that legal and judicial experience necessary to promote procedural fairness; protecting the rights of those appearing before me; and providing a neutral and unbiased forum for an orderly and rational resolution of disputes. 

Further I have held numerous leadership roles along with extensive community involvement and service.  Therefore I would respectfully thank the citizens of Okanogan County for allowing to service them and to vote for me, Henry "Hank' Rawson, for Superior Court Judge Position 1 on their ballot.
