Sam Hunt is a member of the Washington State House of Representatives, the lower house in the Washington State Legislature. Rep. Hunt is a Democratic representative who represents Washington's 22nd legislative district.

In 2008, Hunt is pushing Washington House Bill 2601, which imposes aggressive new restrictions on petition circulators.

Other 2008 legislative initiatives

In 2008, Hunt is also sponsoring HB 2833, a bill that would require all Washington counties to move to mail-in ballots, and not have poll voting. This has led to an editorial rebuke from a Pierce County newspaper, since Pierce County wishes to retain a local option of voting at the polls.[1]

Hunt has expressed support for HB 3292, a bill which would require Washington's cities and counties to craete an audio recording of all "closed-door" executive session meetings, but with the proviso that the bill might be hard to pass.[2],[3]
