Seattle City Council member Kshama Sawant is a die-hard Bernie-or-Buster who’s now telling progressives to ditch Hillary Clinton and vote for Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein instead. At 1:17, Sawant’s close advisor, Philip Locker, tries to defend this position. Can he? And can he defend Jill Stein’s terrible 1990s folk music against a barrage of questions from The Stranger‘s Rich Smith?
Then, at 15:26, Stranger writer Charles Mudede is on to talk about the housing crisis in Vancouver, Canada. It’s much worse than Seattle’s housing crisis and offers a cautionary tale.
After that, at 28:45, Stranger writers Heidi Groover and Sydney Brownstone explain the results of Tuesday’s primary election.
Finally, at 36:24, we tell you what to do this weekend.
