Jean Berkey
Jean Louise (née Haskell) Berkey (August 22, 1938 – August 21, 2013) was an American politician.
Berkey served as Washington State Senator (Democrat) for the 38th District. Her career ended after a 2010 primary election in which her Democratic opponent, Nick Harper, bankrolled ads for the Republican candidate in an effort to "Squeeze The Middle" and prevent the moderate incumbent Berkey from running in the general election.〔Labor and Lawyers Were Behind Sneak Attack on Berkey, PDC Says – Created Fake ‘Republican’ Campaign to Build Up Weak Opponent http://www.washingtonstatewire.com/home/5818-labor_and_lawyers_were_behind_sneak_attack_on_berkey_pdc_says_%E2%80%93_created_fake_%E2%80%98republican%E2%80%99_campaign_to_build_up_weak_opponent.htm〕〔Seattle Times November 2, 2010 Time for a do-over in the 38th Legislative District's Senate primary http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/opinion/2013328444_guest03vognild.html〕〔Seattle Times August 22, 2010 State Sen.
