Surprising nobody, state Rep. David Taylor, R-Moxee, has filed his candidate registration to retain his seat this fall.
Taylor, appointed in March to replace Dan Newhouse after Newhouse became director of the state Agriculture Department, was chosen in part based on his electability.
Now he’ll get to test that electability.
Taylor hasn’t held a public campaign kickoff as some candidates do, but he is officially in the race. He filed his C1 form — candidate registration — with the state Public Disclosure Commission on April 29.
Some interesting tidbits from that form:
• Taylor’s middle name is Vincent.
• His campaign treasurer is Michele Mulhair, who is also the treasurer for the Yakima County Republican Party.
• His wife, Molly Taylor, is listed as his “personal advisor.”
So far nobody has filed to run against Taylor.
The only other state House seats up for election this year, in the 9th and 16th districts, also had midterm replacements.
