The Fraternal Order of Police lodge in Pasco just announced its endorsements. The union represents law enforcement officers.

Sheriff: Democrat Kim Bogart over Jeff Deremer, and Republican Bob Sullivan over Sheriff Bob White (a nemesis of the FOP, he didn't participate).

County Commissioner: challenger John Nicolette over incumbent Ted Schrader in District 1's Republican primary, a heated contest that will virtually decide that seat's election.

County Commissioner: Incumbent Republican Jack Mariano over Rich Jenkins in District 5.

School Board: Joanne Hurley over Kurt Conover and Peter Hanzel in the non-partisan District 2 race.
