David Blomstrom is running for the Seattle School Board, Position 3, and he has a lot on his mind. King County’s Department of Elections posts contact information for every candidate running for office in the August primary, including candidates’ websites. Blomstrom’s is called Seattle-Mafia.org.
There’s lots of quality content on the homepage.
Such as: A photo of Gary Locke with the caption, “Remember this asshole? George W. Bush’s twin brother, Obama, put him in charge of the Dept. of Commerce.” Also featured: Bill Gates’s head Photoshopped onto Hitler’s body from a propaganda poster, declarations that Seattle is a “corporate whorehouse,” and effusive praise of Hugo Chavez.
I called Blomstrom earlier today to set up a Stranger Election Control Board endorsement interview, but Blomstrom told me he doesn’t “do endorsement interviews”. Too bad—he’s my favorite candidate already.
We finally have a replacement for our perennial crank candidate for every local office ever, disbarred lawyer Stan (“Vaccines Will Kill Us All”) Lippman.
Don’t write this guy off completely. He clearly has a complete political system already in place. Evidence: The Queen Anne Mafia (specifically, the Comstock Commission of the Queen Anne Mafia). He probably lord over all of the neighborhood mafias.
@1 – Stan’s running for Mayor up in Lake Forest Park this year. All is well with the universe.
I looked at that site. It looks a lot like some of the more egregious Myspace pages, circa 2005. Like something an angry 14 year old would create.
He’s my least favorite candidate already.
@5 – nice reference. Of course, this guy isn’t a plant, so of course that isn’t what he craves!
Stan appears to be winning, if immunization rejection rates are any measure …
Blomstrom’s OK–He’s no goodspaceguy, but he’s OK.
