Somewhere, Bruce Harrell is slamming a table. Katie Wilson is up by 1,976 votes and 0.72 percent of the vote. It’s tight, but we’re outside of recount territory, and it’s mathematically impossible for Harrell to catch up. Katie Wilson will be Seattle’s next mayor.
I think when the only options on the ballot are corporate stooges, the electorate getting buyer’s remorse isn’t exactly surprising.
