GOP congressional candidate says fellow Republican Doug Cloud "more libertarian"

WASHINGTON STATE

From Eric Dondero:

In two weeks Washington State will hold its multi-party participant "playoffs" primary. For the 6th CD (Bremerton to Tacoma), longtime incumbent Democrat Norm Dicks is being challenged by two Republicans.

The leading challenger to Dicks Doug Cloud has an impressive list of endorsers:

Mainstream Republicans (more libertarian than moderate), Tea Party Coalition PAC, and the Republican Liberty Caucus. Joining in with a personal endorsement, arch conservative, anti-Islamo-Fascist activist and two-time candidate for Congress against Jim McDermott, Steve Beren of Seattle. (Beren is a friend and sometimes contributor of LibertarianRepublican.net)

Also running on the Republican label, 33-year old software engineer Jesse Young of Tacoma.

From the Seattle Times, Aug. 10:

Young said he doesn't worry about Cloud being in the race: "He's more libertarian in his thoughts. I'm more fiscally and socially conservative."

CORRECTION: We originally reported this was the "5th" Congressional District. We heard from the Cloud campaign. It is the 6th.
