I was born and raised in Hermosa Beach, CA. I graduated from Cal State Northridge with a B.A. in Communications. I've been married to Fireman Dave for 30 years! We have two sons - Andrew, a graduate of Azusa Pacific Univ., and, Aaron, serving in the U.S. Coast Guard. I have been a patriot from my earliest memories of having a polling place in our family living room! I have been a citizen activist my entire adult life, from working at the Polls to working on numerous campaigns & committees. I have greatly enjoyed being a part of the ERWC for 6+ years, and God, family & country are my highest priorities.

Georgene Faries was born and raised right here in Washington State. She has lived almost her entire life in Snohomish County.

She has been married to Scott Fairies for 34 years and has 3 children and 3 grandchildren. Being a grandmother is one of the highlights of her life.

She has a son who is an officer in the United States Army. He has served for 6 years. He has been deployed and serving in Iraq.

Since her son's military service started, Georgene began her political involvement. A military family has a vested interest in the country and believes deeply in the principles laid down by our Founding Fathers.

Georgene got her political feet wet by helping on Dino Rossi's campaign for governor. Then this last election cycle was Heidi Munson's campaign manager and was involved with Dennis Richter's campaign as well.

(541) 231-6876 (cell)

Living in various parts of the Pacific Northwest with her husband of 42 years, Jeannette raised two sons, 17 years apart. She obtained a BS degree in manufacturing engineering from Oregon State University at the age of 50.

After losing her husband to cancer in 2007, she moved to Bothell to be close to her older son and his family.

Her employer, Hewlett Packard, was making cuts at about the same time that Jeannette came to realize her generation was passing massive debt on to her grandchildren. This led her to join a number of conservative organizations, among them ERWC. She is also a PCO in the 44th Legislative District.

When she is not trying to save the country, she loves spending time with her family, especially her grandson, now 7.
