Zahilay applauded Oliver and their team. He recalled meeting Oliver during his own campaign. At that time, they grilled Zahilay on if he would align with marginalized communities. I know Nikkita and I are the same age, but they are really my mentor in politics, he said.
He rattled off a list of Oliver s accomplishments and community organizing with #NoNewYouthJail and Decriminalize Seattle. Impressive feats for someone outside of public office. What would they be able to accomplish if they had the backing of the whole city? Zahilay asked. The race is gonna be really close, so keep showing up . eventually we re going to have Nikkita for Nine.
