If she wins, everyone will be invited to our house to jump on the bed, she says.

On our evening walk, we were talking about how @wilsonforseattle.bsky.social is going to be mayor, and my 7 y/o decided she’s going to run for mayor in 2029 on a campaign based on increasing access to trampolines and ice cream machines. This youth vote thing is getting out of hand.

Woah, what the hell was that? Bruce just said that there are people telling him not to concede because there were "anomalies." That's a wild and irresponsible thing to say.

@elections.kingcounty.gov are you gonna let Harrell talk about your fantastic work like this?!??
Harrell said he wouldn't seek a recount despite some "irregularities" in order to give his staff closure upon being asked by media. He said he'll focus on "running through the tape" for his last six weeks in office.

I can’t listen anymore to this Harrell press conference it’s making me too angry. What an ass.

“Yes I have a friendly relationship with @wilsonkatieb.bsky.social and no I can’t help you get a job in the Mayor’s office.”
Me to like 20 people today!
Really feel for Katie and her team and family and the enormous weight and sacrifice of a chill personal life that electeds make!

A mayor, just like any political leader, is as much about who they listen to, and who they bring to the table, and it’s nice to finally have a renter as mayor.

@lauraloeseattle.bsky.social taught an excellent workshop to our tenants association the other evening (a tenants org that @wilsonforseattle.bsky.social actually had a role in helping establish back during the proposed renter-protection rollbacks!) Very excited for our city’s future!
…perfect timing to be working on public bathroom themed letters to the editor with affordable housing residents when we finally have a renter mayor who will actually listen to them! @wilsonforseattle.bsky.social - I know you know we need public bathrooms, especially near frequent transit.

Katie Wilson wins Seattle mayoral race, incumbent Bruce Harrell appears to be preparing to concede

The exciting race for Mayor of Seattle can now be called. With almost no ballots left to count, challenger Katie Wilson has an advantage that incumbent Bruce Harrell cannot overcome.

I really hope some news outlet covers the widespread threats & intimidation used by Harrell + his team to get orgs and individuals to not support Wilson, or to change their support. It’s just really trash behavior; it’s concerning how many people were scared of him.

THIS IS NOT A DRILL

TRANSIT RIDERS HAVE TAKEN OVER THE CITY OF SEATTLE
With basically all the ballots in the city of Seattle's mayoral election counted, Katie Wilson is now above 50 percent, with Mayor Bruce Harrell sliding to 49.6 percent. They're currently within the mandatory recount requirements, but machine recounts don't generally change things much.

I’m teaching a free workshop tomorrow about how to write a letter to the editor to a tenants union at an affordable housing building. I picked an article about the public bathrooms audit to keep things light hearted and so I can make bathrooms puns!
