Satpal Sidhu has another challenger hoping to replace him as Whatcom County Executive.

Democratic State Representative Alicia Rule has announced her candidacy for the position.

Rule is currently serving her second term representing Whatcom County’s 42nd District after winning re-election last November.

Men have held the county’s top office since its creation and Rule says it’s time for women to have “equal representation.”

County Council president Barry Buchanan has also announced that he’s running for county executive.

Sidhu is serving his first term as executive after winning election in 2019.

He announced his re-election campaign in March.
