Other Candidates

Two conservatives are challenging Zach Zappone for Spokane City Council, District 3, Position 2. Christopher Savage and Cody Arguelles

Savage is running a conservative campaign based on fear-mongering about rising crime and homelessness. He is a proponent of passing and enforcing "sit and lie" ordinances that essentially criminalize homelessness. Rather than seeking solutions that address the root of the issue, he blames youth criminal activity and reckless speeding on insufficient policing in Spokane. His campaign Twitter account follows several conservative accounts, including Brian Heywood's Let's Go Washington organization.

Cody Arguelles owns a cigar lounge in downtown Spokane and is an architecture student at Washington State University. He is also a veteran of the U.S. Air Force. Arguelles is running a conservative campaign and has been endorsed by several prominent conservative figures, including anti-trans council member Jonathan Bingle. His campaign focuses on homelessness, public safety, and bringing business to Spokane. His campaign rhetoric suggests that unhoused people are a threat to public safety and that the solution to homelessness is hiring more police officers.

Zappone is the clear choice for Spokane City Council, District 3, Position 2.
