Speaking of the moderate Seattle Times Editorial Board…

Literally none (0) of their City of Seattle endorsements is leading their race. Even in this low turnout primary.

I would love to see them explore why that is.

The first Mayoral candidate to receive the endorsement of King County Democrats and EVERY Legislative District since at least 2001!

The first Mayoral candidate to receive the endorsement of King County Democrats and EVERY Legislative District since at least 2001!

Bruce Harrell's campaign misleadingly sent out a text tonight that implies he's the only candidate endorsed by Democrats. In fact, our campaign has the SOLE endorsement of the King County Democrats and every single local Democrat group in Seattle.

Hello #Seattle area friends! Do you love independent neighborhood coffee shops? Burien Press, our neighborhood coffee shop, is hoping to raise money for a down payment to buy their building now that the landlord is ready to sell. I donated $20. Who will match me? :) gofund.me/514e0628

It’s Primary Time!
Tuesday (TOMORROW) is Primary Election Day & I want to take a moment to thank all of you who have voted for me & supported my campaign. Our shared vision and your belief in my ability to help bring it to life is what has fueled me day to day leading up to this day.

Texas Democrats are showing the courage we need from Democrats everywhere. There are 15 Democratic trifecta states that can redraw their own maps if Republicans escalate: CA, CO, CT, DE, HI, IL, ME, MD, MA, NJ, NM, NY, OR, RI, and WA.

Texas House Democrats flee the state in bid to block GOP’s proposed congressional map The lawmakers’ absence means the lower chamber won’t have enough members present to function, stalling passage of a draft map Democrats have condemned as a political power grab.

But Texas Democrats didn’t blink. They boarded planes, crossed state lines, and dared Republicans to try and pass that fascist map without them. This is the kind of fight we need to see from more Democrats right now.

Sarah and @hugo4burien.bsky.social have made an impressive progressive team while in a 5-2 minority- they’ve had each others backs, been able to scrape a few wins we didn’t see coming, & held fast to their values even when out numbered. I trust them with power because I’ve seen how they govern.

I'm honored to be endorsed by Representative Joe Fitzgibbon of the 34th LD. With leaders like him, we can fight climate change & build resilience at the local level. I am committed to continuing our work to ensure climate justice, clean energy, and sustainability are part of Burien's decisions.

I’m proud to be endorsed by Representative Mia Gregerson, @miagregerson.bsky.social who has served the 33rd LD in the house and has championed workers, renters, and protecting our most essential rights. I’m ready to continue working together to make lives better in Burien! Thank you, Rep Gregerson!

I report a lot on dysfunction in the mental health/homelessness system, so I wanted to share a positive experience:

I just called for help for someone in Seattle and DESC's Mobile Rapid Response Crisis Team (MRRCAT) showed up within 20 mins and two responders expertly and calmly took control.

Rent prices are falling fast in America’s most pro-housing cities Rental prices in some of the country's largest cities are fallingβ€”some by almost 45 percent, according to new data.

Rents in Spokane are down 12% as a result of pro-housing legislation, like removing parking minimums, incentivizing housing on former parking lots, and upzoning all residential parcels.

Sarah in a yellow coat in front of trees, smiles upward. Beside her the quote from Leit Meyers is written in white script on a dark background: β€œSarah is unfailingly thoughtful; she always seeks to be fully informed, deliberate, and equitable in her decision-making. She is also concretely kind and compassionate, advocating for policy and practices in Burien that ensures that the people that attend to and center those in our community who often have the least resources and whose voices are often ignored.”

The banner at the bottom has Sarah's logo and says "I'm voting for Sarah Moore!"

These endorsements are close to my heart because they come from friends and community members I admire and who are working to make Burien a better, kinder, and more welcoming place.

It’s time to get your ballots in & remind your friends and family to VOTE in the Primary election by August 5th!

As of yesterday, only about 8% of Burien ballots had been received by King County elections. This means fewer than 2,500 of our Burien friends & neighbors have turned in their ballot.

Blue graphic with three hands showing peace signs above the text: "Elections are for more than just the president!" followed by four bullet points. 1) Every county (besides King County) elects their sheriff 2) Funding for schools and fire departments can be increased through an election 3) County election leadership is elected every 4 years 4) Most judges and prosecutors in WA are elected.

Pass it on: Elections are for more than just the president β€” and, in WA state, they happen every year!

While primary elections like this one don’t often get high voter turnout, they can have a major impact on your day-to-day life.

Update on my friend Elisabeth: she lost in court and her eviction is going to proceed. We are desperate to raise enough to purchase an RV, as a kind friend has offered her space in the yard to park an RV. Please consider a donation: gofund.me/67fd415d

As the Trump Administration continues to push prices sky high, we are saying HELL NO to cuts to affordable housing programs.

Hell no to more Americans living on the street. Hell no to the cruelty and the greed.
