As a resident of District 3, I can say Sawant has no interest in where I live. She is never seen here and knows zilch about the issues of black flight, terrible local transportation, and dying schools. . She wins by bringing in huge amounts of outside money to organize a voting block. Her office is staffed not by the city but by the SEIU and SA. Few of her followers can afford to live in District 3, but they do work for her. Amazon played into her game by coming in late and making this David vs Goliath.
What Seattle needs is to get these big companies to invest in a better public forum, maybe buy the moribund Seattle Tijes and rebuild as a real newspaper people would read!
