    Friday was the last day to declare a run for office. In Seattle and King County, the deadline formally kicks off a campaign season that will give voters the chance to either dramatically change the direction of local government or largely stay the course.

    Hundreds of years ago, in Persia and the Ottoman Empire, a kiosk was an open-air pavilion, a garden encased in pillars, a portico in which sultans and kings might lounge. In Seattle, it could soon be a touch-screen TV with rotating advertisements and a wayfinding app for lost tourists. Boosters of the city’s business districts have hoped to scatter dozens of these 8-foot-tall digital totems in locations across Seattle since before the pandemic.

My new proposed political barometer is corporate radio. I knew Biden/Harris were cooked because all the ads and giveaways were tied to inflation (“$1000 to fight inflation!”). Now the ads all talk about getting ahead of tariffs. We’ll see how my theory plays out.

Labor was largely against Mayor Harrell in 2021. Now, "I would expect he gets the bulk of — if not all — labor endorsements.” What happened? Harrell's unusually close involvement with a 2023 contract negotiation helps explain. https://t.co/VtzpVJEkAY
