Appointed last year, assessor says job is “a good fit” for her
COLFAX – A Diamond woman will run for Whitman County Assessor, an office she’s held since last year.
Wraylee Flodin, 42, announced last week that she plans to seek election for the post she was appointed to following the death of Robin Jones last year.
“When Robin passed away, I crossed over and it has been a seamless transition,” Flodin said. “It feels like a good fit for me.”
Flodin started working in the Whitman County Treasurer’s Office five years ago and stepped into the job while serving as chief deputy treasurer.
“There is a lot of technical information involved,” she said. “Definitely a bit of a learning curve but the program for assessment has a lot of detail to it and I enjoy learning.”
An active member in the community, Flodin has assisted with the rodeo office and Sheriff Posse events.
She has two young children and loves Whitman County, she said.
Flodin believes people should elect her to the position because she “understands the intricacies and duties of the assessor.”
“Electing me to this role will give me the chance to keep the transparency from the assessors office to the people,” Flodin said.
