To: The Seattle Times Editorial Board
Seattle Times Editorial Board is on the wrong side of history -- again
We need campaign finance laws that protect Seattle's elections from the influence of big money. Please change your Editorial Board position to support I-122, which will give ordinary people a stronger voice in local government.
Why is this important?
I-122 will ensure Seattle stays of, by and for all of the people, not just the ones with connections to wealthy donors and newspaper publishers. We probably shouldn't be surprised the Seattle Times Editorial Board is urging voters to vote no on stronger campaign finance laws.
Like its support for Shell oil drilling in the Arctic, like its opposition to raising the minimum wage, and like its support for a long line of failed big money candidates from McCain to Romney to McKenna, the Seattle Times Editorial Board is dead wrong to oppose I-122.
