The 1987 Snohomish County Executive election took place on November 3, 1987, to elect the county executive of Snohomish County, Washington. Incumbent Democratic County Executive Willis Tucker ran for re-election to a third term. He was challenged by Republican Michael Glanz, an architect who filed on the final day of candidate qualifying. In the primary election, Tucker placed first by a wide margin, winning 57 percent of the vote to Glanz's 43 percent.[1]
In the general election, Tucker outraised Glanz and was viewed as the frontrunner, but Glanz ran an aggressive campaign with support from local Republicans.[2] Tucker ultimately won re-election, but by only a narrow margin, receiving 51 percent of the vote to Gland's 49 percent.[3]
