CORRECTIONS Washington state Rep. Jim Moeller surrendered his House 2 seat in the 49th Legislative District in his unsuccessful bid for Congress Nov. 8. He was succeeded in the 49th District by Monica Stonier, who was endorsed by the Washington State Labor Council. The article “Big wins in Washington for labor” in our Nov. 18 issue incorrectly reported Moeller’s former leg- islative position and his successor. Candidate Frank Hernandez lost his race for Gladstone City Council by 47 to 51 percent. The feature “NW Oregon Labor Council Scorecard” in our Nov. 18 issue incorrectly reported that he won the race by that margin.
