Although election results aren’t officially certified until November 28, for practical purposes all races have been decided. Although the status quo of many councils has been maintained, there are a few changes that should have a significant impact. For example, we know that Seattle City Council will look much different in 2024.
Below are the races that WMFHA chose to make endorsements in and WMFHA PAC supported through direct contributions and independent expenditures.
Our election wrap-up will be distributed early next week.
