Seattle mayor’s race goes into overdrive as Election Day nears Amy Radil October 27, 2025 / 8:23 am

Seattle mayoral candidate Katie Wilson says polls show a neck-and-neck race between her and incumbent Mayor Bruce Harrell. This weekend her campaign got some help from the East Coast.

Former New York City congressman and “Squad” member Jamaal Bowman endorsed Wilson, Harrell’s progressive challenger and founder of the nonprofit Transit Riders Union.

Bowman told the crowd at Washington Hall in Seattle’s Central District that he hopes to celebrate election victories by Zohran Mamdani back home in New York and Wilson in Seattle on Nov. 4.

"I’m excited to build a local, grassroots progressive movement in every city, county, zip code, jurisdiction, state in our country," Bowman said.
