The list of endorsements for April Van Dyke grows and her endorsers are not a bunch of Humboldt court insiders

 

I have a tip about an important local endorsement for Humboldt Superior Court candidate April Van Dyke. I will add it to this post. This evening, her campaign issued a press release about another endorsement from Her Bold Move. 

On February 17, I reported Congressman Mike Thompson and Yurok Tribe Vice Chair and candidate for California State Assembly District 2 Frankie Myers endorsed Ms. Van Dyke.

On February 20, I reported Eureka Councilmember G. Mario Fernandez endorsed her. LA attorney and former Humboldt County Deputy DA has endorsed her. Former Deputy Conflict Counsel Leslie Keig, her former boss at Humboldt Conflict Counsel and het colleagues have endorsed her. The Humboldt County Democratic Central Committee has endorsed her.
