It's endorsement season so I want to share some thoughts that have struck me as I've observed how this plays out specifically in regard to the #Burien city council race. (🧵this might be a long one...)
First off: No one owes you their endorsement just because they've endorsed you in the past. Incumbents ought to be held to a *higher* standard for endorsements, not a lower one. A first-time candidate can impress me with their values, intentions, aspirations;
an incumbent must demonstrate with their specific actions, votes, accomplishments, decisions, that they have in fact used the power bestowed upon them by the votes to further the agenda of the group they'd like to be endorsed by. (Yes, this is about Kevin Schilling)
