"Mike Noblet provided valuable candidate coaching for me in my successful 2018 race for Island County Commissioner.
As I was a complete newcomer to the political world, he helped me refine my written and oral style to create a more disciplined message to take to voters.
He also served on my campaign team, advising on strategy and voter engagement whether through signs, written materials, voter forums or events. He was an asset to my team."

And you even coach on what to eat and why a good amount of sleep is so important.”

“Mike Noblet has been one of my closest friends for a long time. I have observed and admired his performance as a capable campaign manager, competent candidate, respected public official, and trusted friend.
I first knew him when he was an administrative aide to a county commissioner. One of Mike’s strong points is his ability to get things done to the satisfaction of opposing groups: races, income groups, special interest groups, developers, environmentalists, homeowners, and officials of other governmental agencies.
His personal reputation passed the most crucial test when he ran for state representative. Political issues aside, his personal honesty, record of accomplishment, and broad capabilities were never questioned, not once, by anyone including his opponents.
Mike’s understanding of what it takes to run for and win local political office is first rate. His successful candidacies were due in large part to how he motivated many to share his dream for a better community and volunteer their time and/or money to his campaigns.
You will not regret working with Mike!”
