Not possible to recognize all who deserve it, but I deeply appreciate Senators @MarkoLiias @Dhingrama @Yasminsvoice @dsfrockt @senpattykuderer Pedersen and others. Thank you to the Alliance for Gun Responsibility, Grandmothers Against Gun Violence, WA Ceasefire -- a huge victory!
Councilmember-Elect Perry visited District 2 tonight! Can’t wait to welcome the *new* most junior member of the Council in a few weeks 🤗
We got a lotta work to do @PerryElect
I was pleased to receive a call from Kathy Lambert on Sunday conceding the election. I’d like to thank Kathy for her service to the county and state, and wish her the best. Looking forward to working with all on transit, the environment, housing and more. Let’s get to work!
SA-RAH PER-RY [clap, clap, clap-clap-clap]
[Yes I know there’s an emoji but I’m spelling it out so you all say it with me.]
Great one to see. Look forward to another public broadband champion in local government. Congratulations!!!
NEW: Sarah Perry, a former Seattle University executive, has won a seat on the Metropolitan King County Council, ousting longtime incumbent Kathy Lambert.

More updates to come after we learn more on Thursday at 4:30. For now, thank you for everything large and small that you’ve done to help this community-powered campaign.
Thank you so much for your amazing support of our campaign over the last 10 months -- it’s been an incredible journey together to effect change in District 3! While there are still many votes left to count, we are feeling confident after the release of the initial results.
It appears that voters in the district agree that it’s time for a change, and I couldn’t be more thrilled, and honored, to have the privilege of serving KCD3 residents.
From the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU! - Sarah

I just want to take a moment to say thank you. I find myself filled with gratitude this Election Day to have earned your support and participation in ways large and small over the last 10 months.
This has truly been a group effort, and I am honored that you would choose to be a part of it for the change it can bring to our democracy. I am deeply aware that we would not be right where we are today without you.
Today is Election Day!
