Why Tamra
The Auditor’s Office has a lot of responsibility: responding to public records requests, providing accurate budget information, issuing marriage licenses, providing licensing services, and, of course, elections.
I am committed to being a voice for everyone in Mason County:
Ethical Leadership You Can Trust
Our current auditor also serves as Chair of the Mason County Republican Party—creating a clear conflict of interest. As your Auditor, I will model ethical leadership, restore confidence in our elections, and bring back the trust our community deserves. Our elections and all aspects of the Auditor's Office should always be administered fairly and without political influence. I will work for every voter in our county, not just those who vote like me.
Transparent Local Elections
We should always have the ability to watch democracy in action, observe elections, and maintain election integrity. I will bring back the trust we had in our elections for decades. I will ensure the Auditor’s Office staff can run our local elections in an efficient and transparent manner with modern technology.
Supported by Auditors and Our Community
I have 40+ years experience in corporate and nonprofit organizations serving our community. I have the proven skillset to run the Auditor’s Office and am endorsed by the most retired auditors and Mason County residents of any candidate. I will deliver the accountability and public trust we deserve.
Empower Staff for Success
Staff effectiveness is compromised by micromanagement, unreliable systems, unclear procedures, insufficient training, and inadequate staffing. I will collaborate with staff to address any barriers that hamper their ability to perform their duties. Ensuring they have the tools and support they need is critical to maintaining accuracy, legal compliance, and public trust in our local government.
