Walter knows his stuff, isn't afraid to ask the hard questions, and is always thinking about how policies will impact the people of Lincoln County. He's a good colleague, neighbor, and friend. I am excited to support his campaign!"

"I’ve had the pleasure of working with Walter on many issues that are vital to our Coastal Communities. I served with him on the Pacific States Fisheries Management Commission where he advised on invasive species, commercial and recreational fisheries data collection, and other issues important to our fisheries. When I served in the legislature, Port Commissioner Chuck was a respected presence in Salem advocating for funding for port-related legislation and economic development projects.
Walter also served on the Ocean Policy Advisory Council for 10 years and dealt with Offshore Wind, Marine Sanctuaries, updating the Rocky Shores Management plan and other ocean policy issues. He has always been one to do the hard work that it takes to get the job done.
You have the right guy for the job… Vote Walter Chuck for Lincoln County Commissioner."
