It is understandable why challenger candidates talk about COG, change is their equalization to the huge advantage of incumbents.

It seems like all the incumbents spent more time trying to save their power base then they did justifying why they are the better qualified. If they had just said "I am against Prop #1" without all the justification they would have gotten more votes from citizens that are for COG.

I believe the Angle Lake Council (ALC) handlers may have sunk the incumbents' ship~ 

Much effort spent on why an elected mayor was a bad idea.

Shows the closed mindedness of incumbents and supporters. Fear of change, loss of 'power.'

Let's embrace change, elect a mayor.

Whose to say it won't be the best thing that ever happened to SeaTac?

How will we ever know for sure unless we try?

Envision the headline: First Woman Mayor Elected in the City of SeaTac.

Who's to say...the Voters.
