Mayor Bruce Harrell considers it scandalous and hypocritical that Katie Wilson's parents help her pay for child care in Seattle. When he was asked about one of his own kids during his first campaign, he said his parenting choices were no one's business. www.seattleweekly.com/news/a-city-...

Bruce Harrell and Sara Nelson, on the brink of losing both their elections, want attention.
In 2015 Harrell supported a budget slip pre election put forward by Sawant to fund a municipal broadband pilot, then voted against it after election.
He is a liar.

The @wabikes.bsky.social mayoral endorsement is wrong - if you bike or roll around Seattle, the only choice for mayor is @wilsonforseattle.bsky.social.
Harrell has worked tirelessly to claw back, downscale and delay critical bike safety projects.
If you bike in Seattle, Wilson for mayor. Easy.

Drawing showing the changes planned for S Orcas Street and LWB
What the records show:
-Major elements of the LWB redesign, like the changes at Orcas Street, nearly went out for construction before being killed by the Mayor's Office
-Parks staff were continuing to negotiate over individual elements of the project as late as early June.

A Times profile of Katie Wilson being highlighted in an email. "Katie Wilson shrugged off the idea she might be better suited for a City Council seat, instead aiming for Mayor"
This is so incredibly condescending from the Seattle Times. Do you also ask male candidates if they'd considered running for an "easier" office?

Harrell and his endless "I'm from these streets" is a call to stick with the Seattle Process. It's a message to homeowners that only their voice counts. It a campaign to do the bidding of business. Wilson is a chance to join the 21st century and sweep away the cobwebs

This was always the plan.
Project 2025 was Donald Trump's blueprint to seize unchecked power within the federal government and restrict Americans' freedoms. And he is implementing it right in front of our eyes.

A list of the top contributors to the PAC supporting Bruce Harrell. 3 of the top 6 are from the eastside and only one is from Seattle.
βWhile development in the area is meant to maximize the appeal of dense urban living, coming off the impacts of COVID and challenges of major street and sidewalk construction, representatives had specific concerns about customers who drive from the Eastside or neighborhoods like Madison Park and Madrona [β¦] They are having a hard time getting to their destinations or are confused by the new traffic pattern.β
Hmm... probably just a coincidence.

City planners did all the overdone outreach process, got told everyone supports bus lanes, didnβt like that outcome so they opted for a closed door private meeting with the 4 people who didnβt like bus lanes and said we must cancel them

Bruce Harrell at the Fremont Neighborhood Council forum last night: "Let's talk about pedestrian deaths: since I've been in office, the death count now is at 10, that was about half of what it was in 2021."

Hi @npr.org! We worked late tonight putting together this handy pocket guide!
It doesn't address road design issues, but if we're going to educate road users, we should include drivers.
