Nearly 60 candidates have registered to run for seven open Seattle City Council seats in this November’s election. Most will be eliminated after the August 6 primary.

To help you learn more about each of the candidates, Jessica Tingle, WR’s Executive Administrative Assistant, has assembled a handy spreadsheet including pertinent information on all the declared candidates for City Council.

The spreadsheet includes the district in which candidates are running, the funds they have raised for their campaigns and some brief biographies. Candidates have until May 17 to declare their intention to run.
