ELECTION 2019: Still deciding? Come see the council candidates Saturday morning!

Missed the West Seattle Chamber of Commerce-presented City Council District 1 debate last night? Our coverage is coming up later today but in the meantime, you can also plan to spend an hour Saturday morning seeing the candidates answer questions side by side: The West Seattle Junction Association is presenting it, your WSB co-publishers are moderating it, 11 am Saturday at the Senior Center/Sisson Building (4217 SW Oregon). Everyone’s welcome – out with the kids? Bring them too.

Tavel is the best this time! Lisa has had her chance to help clean up the city and did pretty much nothing. We still have police with no power, homeless (drug addicts really) everywhere and crime is all over West Seattle. Time for a change ! Bye Lisa !

All the drug addicts I know live in houses and have jobs. All the homeless I know also have jobs, but can’t afford housing, but hey yeah it’s one council persons fault out of nine in Seattle.

Gosh, I had no idea who I was going to vote for but then I read all these insightful comments! Thanks everyone for taking the time to share!

This is peak NIMBY.

Spoken like a person who doesn’t have a grasp on current situations. Homelessness doesn’t equal drug addict.The Police have power, they’re just having a temper tantrum on accountability.Crime is way down, especially in West Seattle, just because you read a crime report in the WSB doesn’t mean there’s rampant crime.But by all means draw ridiculous conclusions based on no information and blame Lisa and for everything.
