proximity to the puget sound is a literal lifeline - cooler temps, higher winds to keep out or dilute smoke we should focus most of our housing proximal to it.

If you know someone 18-25, or you or friends have young adults home for summer, get them to vote! They want to but sometimes have obstacles finding their ballot, deciding who to vote for, how to vote, etc. Show them electioncheatsheet.org if left leaning - and use ballot boxes, not mail.

My $0.02 if you're voting in Seattle today: I found The Stranger and the Washington Progressive Voters Guide to be, at best, center-left and, at worst, moderate, in some of their choices. If you want a true progressive voting guide, I recommend the Lefty Cheat Sheet: electioncheatsheet.org

one of the most interesting things that electioncheatsheet.org makes possible is seeing how the optional inclusion of a number of big WA unions actually tips the scales more conservative. it's a good reminder that union leadership in america is not really the leftmost wing of our politics.

NEW: Young people are on the ballot this election, but can we please get young people to the ballot BOX? So far, King County voters 65+ account for 4 times as many ballots as people under 35. You have until 8pm Tuesday to close that gap!

I just voted using electioncheatsheet.org. It made it so easy to compare different sources of information on the races I was less familiar with (I found @theurbanist.org's endorsements to be the most helpful organization). Thanks @electioncheatsheet.org!

Tree Action Seattle has been told what the rules are — we know because we spent hours talking to them about campaign and non profit rules in 2021-2023 where we carefully explained to Sandy what a c3 and c4 are. So they can’t pretend to be ignorant of the rules they are flaunting.
We projected 45% turnout for this election, King County. As of 8 a.m., 19% of you had turned out. You've got until 8 p.m. tonight to make your voice heard! kce.wiki/DropBox has a list and map of all 91 official ballot drop boxes across the county.
Absolute bullshit. You know why? Tree Action no longer legally exists as an independent entity as of Feb 2025. This is known as Model A fiscal sponsorship, where the Project (Tree Action) is wholly and legally absorbed into the Monprofit (Parks Foundation) fiscalsponsorship.com/the-models-s...
And I did rewatch this portion of the comments to verify... It was SPF director of government relations Caroline Villanova specifically commenting on behalf of @seattleparksfoundation.org in support of Saka's amendment B. I'm disgusted.
No if you look up the authors to the 3 anti-121215 op eds in Seattle Times, you’ll find half of them on the SPF board
