David Carson is a seasoned councilmember of 12 years and leans to the right. He doesn't make a big thing out of political endorsements since council members are nonpartisan. He actively supports small businesses and the community. Angie Nuevancamina is a Redmond Planning Commissioners; she leans left like most of the present councilmembers and is openly supported by democratic representatives and organizations. She's a supporter of small businesses, as well.

Republicans don't make a big deal out of endorsements here not because they are nonpartisan races, but because being Republican makes it harder to win. They have a hard time getting union endorsement (even police sometimes), environmentalists, civil activists, etc. That's not a hard and fast rule, but generally the case.
