Fortney, Johnson race for sheriff shatters record for campaign cash

EVERETT — If money is the indicator, the Snohomish County sheriff’s race is the most contentious campaign on November’s ballot.

Not only has it generated the most campaign cash of any Snohomish County race thus far in the season, but the total raised far exceeds any sheriff’s race in recent memory.

It’s only August, and incumbent Sheriff Adam Fortney has more than quadrupled his contributions from the previous election, with $163,000 gathered already.

Susanna Johnson, the deputy police chief in Bothell, has raised $134,000 in her bid to unseat Fortney. Before moving to Bothell, she worked in the Snohomish County Sheriff’s Office for 30 years as a deputy, narcotics detective and precinct commander.
