SGN Endorsements Kshama Sawant (US House of Representatives, 9th District)
Our endorsement for the 9th Congressional District of Washington is Kshama Sawant! On Seattle City Council, Sawant was a driving force behind progressive policies and government accountability that made our city a better place. Sawant’s candidacy against Rep.

The View From the Cheap Seats
We have looked forward for years to the World Cup coming to Seattle, and it finally swept through the city this summer.
