“Affordability must be part of every decision, because wages aren't keeping up. Randi will support policies to attract higher paying jobs, make housing more affordable, and oppose policies that shift costs onto families while protecting the wealthy and big corporations.”
(WA Secretary of State 2026 General Election Voters' Pamphlet) “Families across Southwest Washington are being squeezed and the incumbent hasn't done anything about it. We can't wait any longer for leadership.”
(Campaign website (electrandi.com)) “Good policy starts with listening — and succeeds when it makes everyday life more affordable, stable, and fair. My priorities are grounded in experience, not ideology, and guided by a simple question: Does this actually make life better for people in the 18th District?”
