Lovick and Sax duel on car tabs, tolls and transparency

The political duel for a legislative seat between Democratic state Rep. John Lovick and Republican Jeff Sax at times has been personal.

Lovick, one of Snohomish County ‘s most recognized elected officials, is seeking a second term in his second tour as a House member from the 44th District.

The 67-year-old Mill Creek resident is counting on relationships built in a long career in elected politics to carry him to re-election.

“They know me. They trust me,” he said.

Sax, a former Snohomish County Councilmember, is campaigning on a message of change.

The 56-year-old Snohomish resident said the incumbent’s partisan voting record coupled with issues in his personal history make him undeserving of another two years in the Legislature.

“He is not voting (for) the district. He is not representing the district at all,” he said. “We need a new direction.”

Jeff Sax is as sleazy as they come. I remember when he ran for reelection for Snohomish County Council against his opponent Dave Somers he tried to play the homophobic card. Sax lost the election.
