The Urbanist is seeking passionate, locally-engaged volunteers to help guide our political endorsements for the 2025 cycle by serving on our Elections Committee.
Time commitment is roughly two 4-6 hour virtual meetings to interview candidates for office, 2-3 preparatory meetings of approximately one hour, an in-person meeting in the Puget Sound area to determine endorsements, and time spent creating and reviewing candidate questionnaires, all between roughly April and November. It's a big commitment -- but it's fun, it's important, and you'll learn a ton!
To be eligible for consideration, one of the following must apply: you live in the Tacoma area, the Bellevue area, Pierce County, South King County
outside of Seattle city limits, or East King County
outside of Seattle city limits, Shoreline, Lynnwood.
