1Opinion of the Court

Armstrong, J. —

Donald Crisman ran for Pierce County Fire Protection District 21 Commissioner against incumbent Robert Skaggs in 1997. After he lost, Crisman sued the District and its Executive Director, claiming that the director coerced district employees to campaign for Skaggs. Crisman alleged claims under Washington’s Public Disclosure Act, chapter 42.17 RCW, and the federal Civil Rights Act, 42 U.S.C. § 1983. He also alleged that the District was negligent in hiring the director. The trial court granted summary judgment for the District and its director, and Crisman appeals. We affirm.
