    Sawant should keep her trap shut - when Chief Best runs for mayor, she's gonna bring a shit ton of law and order persons of color with her gunning for Council seats.

    As the swarthy one says, the money'd in Seattle are probably just about at the point where they say 'ok, the gloves are coming off. GTFO and let the adults run things".

    Cook it.

    I agree, but wonder how 22,000 people were stupid enough to vote for her. My home is not in her district and there were plenty of Sawant signs. This lady seems to have plenty of supporters.

    I am seeing and sensing a lot of timidness in people around the Seattle area. I'm not sensing people reaching that Peter Finch moment. I hope I'm wrong.

    I've told this story before, but I was living in Seattle when she was first elected. When she was campaigning, I was talking to a neighbor of mine. She was like, "It is just so exciting to think we could elect a woman of Indian descent to such a prominent position!" And I said, "yeah, but have you heard some of the things she's saying? Sometimes she sounds almost crazy."

    Because people just plain like racism. Especially self-loathing white liberals.

    To them, it explains everything, just like the Bible does for crazy Christians.

    It's a religious cult, where whites have no power and enjoy the abuse.

    Kind of like a chick I once dated. Weird shit.

    There are A LOT of millenial transplants in Seattle. They are a mercurial bunch and they don't like to live in the same place for long. They also vote and are the likely source of support for the council.

    There are a lot other people in Seattle outside that demographic who have probably never cast a ballot for a council position. It's hardly ever been that important.

    Seattle is a liberal place. I'm not going to deny that. But across the board, not that liberal.
