Vote for John Creighton for Port Commissioner!

You know who just sent us an e-mail touting how much “we need Pete Lewis” on the Port of Seattle Commission? Rob “Different Kind of Republican” McKenna! That’s right, the same Republican attorney general who sued to overturn Obamacare, who ran for governor on a platform of balancing the budget through a calculated strategy of ignoring the mathematical effects of compounding, and who didn’t want to let gays marry—that same asshole now insists that “we need” Auburn mayor Pete Lewis to help oversee the port’s $600 million annual budget. Other editorialists have dinged incumbent commissioner John Creighton for being “notoriously uncivil,” but you know what? Folks in Auburn tell us that Lewis can be a dick, too. Worse yet, Lewis is a Republican dick, whereas throughout his two terms, Creighton has proven himself to be the most reliably pro-labor and pro-reform member of a commission that, before his arrival, had a sorry reputation as a den of corporate cronyism. “The Port of Seattle needs an experienced, proven leader,” writes McKenna. We agree with Rob! And that’s why we’re urging you to reelect John Creighton.
