Check your ballot. It’s possible that it’s been challenged due to leaving the ballot envelope unsigned or a signature mismatch. You can cure that with King County Elections so your ballot is counted! kingcounty.gov/en/dept/elec...

Bummed about a Claudia. She would have been a better exec.

We’re on the right track! Make sure you track your ballot to confirm it is accepted, NOT challenged. Check our links in bio to do so! More votes will be counted on Monday!

Katie Wilson won 54.85% to Bruce Harrell’s 44.86% of the 56,118 votes counted today. She could overtake Harrell at this rate. The next update will be on Monday. Stay tuned!

Less than 2 points away!! THIS IS YOUR CITY!!! Mayor Wilson is on her way

BOOM. Wilson closes the gap, with many more ballots left. This is a tremendous result for her. She trails Harrell by just 1.9% and 4,300 votes. There are many more ballots remaining than at this point in the primary count.

With another 56,000 votes counted in the Seattle mayor's race, Katie Wilson has narrowed the gap with incumbent Bruce Harrell to just 4,300 votes, and received just under 55 percent of the vote in the latest count, with perhaps 50,000 votes remaining to be counted. That's a solid turnaround.

Not a deep dive, but I did just get off a zoom meeting in which a research center at a public university is doing excellent, open source accessibility research that will be used to make community is more accessible. They do use AI, it’s clear that 1/2

Does anybody know of any public libraries having fare machines for transit agencies? #transit #libraries

Ban the use of AI in public administration, period. Require ironclad, transparent proof of accuracy on par with, say, the 30th percentile of human performance, then we can reconsider.

Mind you the median property in Yarrow Point is worth at least $3m last I checked

How do I make this my ringtone?

GLORIOUS.

I highly recommend encouraging all of your friends and neighbors to do the same. If this race is as close as it’s looking it could be, that could save Wilson volunteers time curing ballots.

The bubby.

You can ensure that your vote has been counted by checking online or rectifying it if needing additional signature verification. info.kingcounty.gov/kcelections/...

Good morning to almost everyone.

Is there a feed where i can see replies from people I follow?

Stress eating the cookies my neighbor brought me.

Thursday drop. Wilson trails Harrell by 9,908, 5.7%. The gap begins to close. We are apparently STILL not into a drop box sample yet, or only including some drop box data. There's a TON of votes expected to lean Wilson out there.

AliceLynx doesn’t mind the so-called Big Dark.

I just found another opened jar of chili crisp in the refrigerator (a different, less favored brand).

I like this idea. Three days or even four seems reasonable.

I would no longer call it Lean Wilson. It's a toss-up.

Well. That's not a shift to Wilson. She did lose ground on one day of the primary count, but needs something dramatic now. 90k to 100k votes left, Wilson trails by 11,183. She needs at least 55% of the remaining votes.

Adventures in the perversity of our medical system. I am trying to report RH's death to Regence. I give his basic info, then put on a brief hold, fine. Then am asked for MY DOB? Excuse me? Why do they need my DOB when I am reporting his death? LMAO. No, I did not give my DOB.

Katie Wilson gained 8.89% between Election Night and the final results in the primary. To feel good about her overcoming the general gap and having a similar performance, you'd want her to be about 4.5% behind or better after today's drop. (She actually LOST ground on the Thursday drop in August.)

Anyone have a ticket for the event at Town Hall tonight they can’t use?

More importantly: Hello Dionne!

Here's a look at the raw numbers in the Seattle mayoral contest, with 2021 for scale. Harrell has lost a lot of ground from his 2021 win. Wilson gained 17,221 votes more than Harrell between the primary and general. That would be more than enough to eliminate the 8,319 vote gap here.

Hello Eddie!

Bye bye Ann!

Also: bye bye Sara.

Only 23 % of the ballots are in, and we know that late breakers swing left so I wouldn’t get too comfy if I were the incumbent.

Here.

Wow there are a lot of people here.

Okay but what is happening in MPLS!!!!?

now everyone in NYC gets their own personal bus

In retrospect, opting for bike over link means missing the pre-party party!

Ain’t over til it’s over (certified) but NYC results are giving Wilson Machine Works vibes.

The downside of going to the election party is that I won’t be able to calculate the math on my election spreadsheet.

Will we know NYC results tonight or no?

Initial results in NYC: Mamdani up 52% to 40% for Cuomo

Can someone else please explain daylight savings time to him? I’m not getting through.

The incumbent’s consultants get paid even if he loses. Let that sink in.

From @wilsonforseattle.bsky.social "Just wanted to let you know we're expecting kind of a packed house, and we might overflow out into the plaza so wanted to give you a heads up to bring a jacket!"

Just passed a biz signed “Wilson Machine Works” and yeah, I think it does.
