Bellevue Mayor Claudia Balducci has provided strong and thoughtful leadership during a time of fast growth on the Eastside. As a leader on regional boards and commissions, she has tirelessly advocated for light rail and practical transportation solutions. Balducci will also bring her experience as Director of King County Jails, where she maintained public safety in the face of recession-era cutbacks, and improved the treatment of individuals with mental illness who were in the jails. Balducci would bring fresh leadership and innovative ideas to the King County Council.
Balducci is running for King County Council District 6 against 20-year incumbent Jane Hague. Hague is a conservative who has been a reluctant supporter on important votes like emergency funding to preserve Metro service. Balducci is the clear choice in this race.Last updated: 2023-04-05Claudia Balducci

Initiative 1366
Initiative-1366 from Tim Eyman orders the legislature to send a constitutional amendment to the voters next year requiring a two-thirds supermajority vote to close tax loopholes or raise revenue. If legislators refuse, Eyman’s initiative would create an $8 billion hole in our state budget over the next six years by cutting the sales tax by a full 1 percent.
