Mercer Island City Council
There are two good candidates in this race: Mark Coen and Benson Wong. Coen is the more progressive candidate while Wong has earned the endorsement of our partners at Washington Conservation Voters.
Mark Coen is a former Mercer Island Youth and Family Services Board member and the founder of Attachment and Trauma Specialists. He has also worked previously with Earthcorps, the National Association of Social Workers, and the Alliance of Child Mental Health. Coen's campaign is focused on updating infrastructure, residential code, and mobility. We believe Coen will bring a fresh progressive perspective to the Mercer Island City Council.
