# We need to be absolutely clear: we will not allow Seattle to become a testing ground for authoritarianism. And resistance starts with using every legal tool at our disposal. The Seattle City Attorney’s office has a central role to play in defending our neighbors and our fundamental rights. Here’s how:
Elections are this November. A ton of seats up. Shitty center right mayor. Shitty right wing city attorney. Shitty right wing city council president, among others.
The current city attorney was voted in 4 years ago in 2021
Can’t be worse than Paul Schell.
Wasn’t old enough to have any opinion of him but I just asked my dad who’s been living here since '89 and he thinks our current mayor is worse lmao
Schell is the only politician I went after off campus. Locke was fucking useless, but Schell loved to fuck up at every chance he got.
And I ran the editorial board at Seattle’s third-largest daily (bearing in mind the P-I was still printing), so I got to do it anonymously.
