She would make a great council member, if every other member wasn't just like her. I haven't decided on a mayoral candidate, but I'm deciding between Durkan and Farrell. They both seem like the most likely to accomplish something. And the least "one-issue" of all the candidates. We are so lucky in Seattle. Unlike most of the country we really don't have to worry about any stealth born-again candidates who are going to get in office then push legislation mandating the teaching of creationism, or eliminating birth control. We get a nice spread of liberal candidates to choose from, and have the leisure to pick the ones who might be the most effective.  Oliver sounds awesome, but she is a firebrand. If we learn one thing from the election of 2016 it should be that we don't want another firebrand. 2016 was dominated by firebrands, one from the left, one from the right. Combined they did this country great harm, and I blame them both. Bernie made Trump possible.  Just say no to firebrands!
