Seattle Socialist Mayor Katie Wilson Faces Recall Hearing Poll Shows Disapproval

A King County court hearing is now officially scheduled on the effort to recall Seattle Mayor Katie Wilson — and a new poll from Change Washington shows she's in serious trouble with her own voters. Majorities across the political spectrum disapprove of her performance, Democrats are split, and independents are decisively against her. Sean walks through the recall petition, the legal grounds (Aurora crime corridor, open drug markets, CCTV cameras deliberately left offline), and the steep "malfeasance" standard that makes a successful removal almost structurally impossible in Washington state.Wilson didn't show up to her own hearing. Instead she put out a public statement defending her public safety record for the first time since the Byte of Seattle mass shooting put her on the defensive. Sean breaks down why the bar for recall is set so high, why no King County judge is likely to pull the trigger, and what the poll numbers actually tell us about the state of Seattle's electorate heading into the next election cycle.The recall grounds center on what petitioners call intentional failure: crime allowed to fester on the Aurora corridor, open drug markets, and the now-infamous decision to shut off CCTV cameras in high-crime areas. Whether that clears the legal definition of malfeasance is a different question than whether voters are fed up — and on that front, the polling is unambiguous.Subscribe to @reasonablenews for daily coverage of Pacific Northwest politics, Seattle city hall, and the stories mainstream media buries.#NFRP #Seattle #KatieWilsonGO PREMIUM WITH REASONABLE+ FOR UNCENSORED ACCESS 🌟https://ReasonableTV.com/🛍️ MERCH - https://Store.ReasonableTV.com/💬 JOIN our FREE Discord Community!
