Katie Wilson for Seattle @wilsonforseattle.bsky.social · Aug 6
Tonight, we got results that were even better than we hoped, and it’s likely to only get better.

Seattle, you showed up!

It’s clear that voters want change.

This is your city.

Join the campaign, and let’s get this done!
Katie ready for the rest of the race. Katie with the crowd.

It's outrageous that they are going to spend over $1 million on negative ads. Join me this Saturday on Capitol Hill to knock on some doors! I know Katie, and she's a thoughtful, collaborative, caring, policy nerd (complimentary), who cares about delivering results for people not just sound bites.

Local Queens Miss Texas 1988 and Harper Bizarre hosted a debate watch party at Neighbours Nightclub, and they took a minute to share why Katie is the candidate who stands with artists, performers, and Seattle’s LGBTQ+ community.

I am glad to see that the SPD has responded to the outpouring of disapproval for Capt. Tietjen’s promotion. Abusive actions and anti-trans speech must not be tolerated in SPD.

Reversing Decision, SPD Removes Controversial Captain Tietjen from East Precinct

Police Chief Shon Barnes blamed PubliCola's story, "internal leaks," and "a lack of comprehensive input" from others for the controversy.

Katie Wilson was amazing at the debate yesterday evening.

(We heard that’s the nicest Harrell had been to her and it still was unacceptable levels of disrespect and condescension.)

Yesterday, I returned to Lake City to meet with small business owners and the dedicated team at North Helpline. We talked about tweaks to improve Seattle Restored, how to support our unhoused neighbors in Tent City 4 and throughout the neighborhood.

Capt Tietjen has a long record of actions that diminish public confidence in SPD. We cannot afford that. I want to give the new chief the benefit of the doubt, but this decision reflects either bad judgment or a lack of due diligence, neither of which will be accepted when I’m Mayor.
SPD Chief Puts Cop Who Called 2020 Protesters "Cockroaches" In Charge of East Precinct
Mike Tietjen, who was promoted over a gay acting commander, was suspended, reassigned, and reprimanded after multiple complaints in 2020, including an incident in which officers taunted a trans woman.
