Spokane County Clerk Race Heats Up | Spokane News

Spokane County’s clerk race heats up as Democrat Elliot Robison, a 29-year-old tech whiz, and Republican Dave Lucas, a seasoned court administrator, battle for the top spot—vacated by long-serving incumbent Tim Fitzgerald. Robison wants to modernize public records with real-time justice data and bridge the gap between complex systems and citizens. Lucas, backed by the current clerk, promises efficiency and expanded services like drive-thru filing, while pledging non-partisan governance despite his political leanings. Both face a $30 million deficit, with Lucas eyeing budget cuts and Robison focusing on transparent communication. Whoever wins will need to deliver big under tough financial pressure.
