The 2015 Snohomish County Executive election took place on November 3, 2015, to elect the county executive of Snohomish County, Washington. Incumbent Democratic County Executive John Lovick, who was first appointed in 2013 and elected in a 2014 special election to serve out the term of Aaron Reardon, ran for re-election to a full term. He was challenged for re-election by four opponents, including Democrat Dave Somers, the Chair of the County Council, and former Republican congressional candidate Robert Sutherland.[1]
In the primary election, Somers narrowly placed first, winning 33 percent of the vote to Lovick's 32 percent and Sutherland's 26 percent.[2] Somers and Lovick advanced to the general election, where Lovick campaigned on his administration's successes in economic development and Somers attacked Lovick for mismanagement of county government.[3]
Somers ultimately defeated Lovick by a wide margin,[4] winning 56 percent of the vote to Lovick's 43 percent.[5]
