Seattle Nice Is the Seattle City Council race over?
On this deeply troubling election eve, Seattle Nice invites you inside the podcast for a comforting conversation about local politics.
First, we take a closer look at the juicy allegations swirling around SPD Chief Sue Rahr's decision to place former Chief Adrian Diaz and his chief of staff on leave.
Second, a recent poll finds progressive city council candidate Alexis Mercedes Rinck has a ginormous lead over incumbent Tanya Woo. If accurate (Sandeep's skeptical), what would a big progressive win mean for the council's centrist majority heading into 2025?
Third, we discuss council member's Rob Saka's effort to remove, "a traffic safety barrier that prevents him from turning left on Delridge directly into the parking lot of his kids’ preschool." Is this a good look?
