This week in politics: Seattle races are quiet . too quiet? Feb 26, 2021
Itâs been a quieter week in local Seattle politics. Some would say, too quiet.
What exactly is going on with the Seattle mayorâs race? Or the competition for a Council seat? I was thinking that we would have more announcements [by now], says Essex Porter, politics and government reporter for KIRO 7. Even well-known big names don t have much time left, I m thinking, because you have to organize and raise money.
Porter notes that mayoral candidates have to get past the primary in August, and time can move fast between campaign organizing and raising money.
