Want to help? Ask your legislator to cosponsor HB 2098!

the primary thing that TPUSA provides to young conservatives is a blueprint for weaponizing the abject cowardice of university administrators against individual teachers and instructors, and university admins should take a long look in the mirror and think about what that says about them

God is good! Merry Christmas!

"graze" 😭

When you ask voters to choose between corporate profits and protecting our neighbors – it’s not even close. This year, Seattle voters chose the tax corporations to fund social housing (63%) and to pass the Seattle Shield Initiative to protect our neighbors (71%). Let’s keep it going!

Congratulations to our Mayor-elect, @wilsonforseattle.bsky.social! #ThisIsOurCity #Seattle #SEAElex #SeattleElex #KCElex #WAElex

I've seen enough. Congratulations, Mayor-elect Katie Wilson!

Congratulations to Mayor-Elect Katie Wilson! @wilsonforseattle.bsky.social I’m looking forward to working together in building a city that is affordable, safe, and thriving for working families!

I spoke with KCE about this in a prior election. The most common reason this happens (99.99% of cases) is when a voter has written in the name of a candidate already on the ballot.

Excited about Katie Wilson pulling into the lead? Want to politick with others who care about our local elections? Join us on Tuesday, November 11th from 6:30pm @ Stoup Brewing (1158 Broadway, Kid & Pet friendly) for our monthly social! #Seattle #SEAElex #SeattlePol #SeattlePolitics #LocalPolitics

In the past fifty years of Seattle elections, the 2025 Dream Team are now the top four vote-getters of any general election campaign. The number of people who voted for that slate is greater than the total population of Skagit County.

In the past 50 years of Seattle elections, only two campaigns have ever received 200k votes or more. Both of them were run by @alexis4seattle.bsky.social. More analysis coming in just a mo.

Going back in time and making socialist mayor David Dinkins eminent domain Trump Tower from bankrupt Donald Trump and pursue fraud charges and begging him to trust me.

The Rinck, Evans, and Foster campaigns are now officially ranked 2nd, 9th, and 13th, respectively, in total votes received in general elections in Seattle going back to 1973. AMR now holds the top two spots. And counting is far from done.

ELECTION NIGHT PARTY ANNOUNCEMENT! Come hang with us at Black and Tan Hall!

Rep. Scott is right: 900,000 people in our state losing SNAP benefits is definitely an emergency. Image with alt text:

INNING 18! GIVE UT UP FOR INNING 18!

toronto. toronto please. it's a school night.

Challenger Dionne Foster has a fifteen point lead over incumbent Sara Nelson for Seattle City Council Position #9 44% of 615 likely November 2025 voters surveyed October 19th-23rd in Washington's largest city say they have or will be voting for Foster, a former city policy analyst, nonprofit…

ig they knew better than to send me that fuckass mailer

We deserve better. Dehumanizing our neighbors by using photos of them on their worst days without their consent is unacceptable. We have a lot of work to do to address homelessness, but this only moves us further from that goal by othering real people in an attempt to score cheap political points.

Yesterday, I received a text notifying me that a patient at Kindred Hospital First Hill had received one of the two pints of blood I have donated this year.

I’ve been hard at work doing what the people sent me here to do…and I think the people like it.

In Redmond, Washington hundreds have people have also come out to say #nokings.

they obviously don't know their shit BC otherwise they wouldn't have put that godforsaken hyphen in @alexis4seattle.bsky.social name. Rinck is THE surname, folks!

The County Council just took a unanimous 9-0 vote to establish the Broadway Facility fund, paving the way to opening a Crisis Care Center on Capitol Hill.

My remarks today to the King County Council regarding the Crisis Care Center: Thank you Mr Chairman, members of the Council. My name is Charlotte Phillippe. I was born in Redmond, raised in Fairwood, and have lived in Seattle my entire adult life. (1/7)

I hope this doesn’t cost me my election, but I don’t like the new Taylor Swift album.

Where do I get my “this is not the time for hope” bumper sticker?

“This is not the time for hope” will live in Seattle political infamy.

Great advice for all voters - return directly if possible: “To ensure that your ballot counts this year, it’s vital that you return it using a drop box so that it goes straight to your county elections office” #waelex

My statement in regard to comments made by State Representative John Gillette of Arizona:

"Every time there's a mass shooting in the US, my trans friends and I hold our breath."

As a Seattle resident, I've gotten an immense amount of notice and opportunity to weigh in on the comprehensive plan. There were many neighborhood meetings, a website that received thousands of comments, and many city council hearings like the one happening now. Homeowners aren't being excluded.

It is WILD that this sentiment is getting pushback but: Absolutely do not RSVP to protests. As an org, do not ask people to RSVP to protests. It’s risky and irresponsible in our current environment. People’s safety is more important than your org’s desire to list build!

I live less than 500 feet from the proposed site, & have for over half a decade. There is tangible need for the CCC and the reality is that this location is a perfect candidate, wrt zoning and proximity not only to potential user populations but also wraparound/multidisciplinary services.

Because Kettle & co. would probably oppose it to protect "neighborhood character." See: 1st Ave Connector streetcar

“Once surveillance data is collected, it is notoriously challenging to protect against federal misuse…Department of Homeland Security and ICE have successfully accessed data from the Washington Healthcare Authority and the Washington Department of Licensing. Seattle should not line up to be next.”

Choosing not to kill myself so I can live to see JD Vance tried at the Hague.

Important to remember that everyone involved in renaming the DoD to the Department of War is afraid to take the subway.

NEW: Mayor Harrell is facing charges of electioneering on the City's official social media after the City made a new Tik Tok fan page for him late July. The ethics czar initially dismissed the complaint, but now the commission will discuss the issue Oct. 1. www.theburnerseattle.com/post/ethics-...

it should be noted Labour is in deep, deep electoral shit. Nigel Farage's far-right Reform UK party is tipped to form a gov't if an election is called now (which it won't be). Labour has until 2029 to right this ship, otherwise many current gov't ministers will lose their seats.
