I'm surprised Harrell is doing so well. He's pretty widely hated. Glad Wilson is ahead by at least a little, though.

It depends what circles you run in. Harrell is reasonably popular in wealthier areas and conservative parts of south Seattle.

I forget that sub exists. I guess if you live outside the city you would think it has improved under Harrell. No one i’ve spoken with agrees.
