Seattle Residents Push to Recall Mayor | Seattle News

Published 14 hours ago
Description

Two Seattle residents have launched a recall petition against Mayor Katie Wilson, accusing her of failing in her legal duty to ensure public safety amid escalating crime and leadership crises. The petition cites five major failures: the forced resignation of the Police Chief, gun violence and sex trafficking in North Aurora, drug dealing and violence in Chinatown, rising crime in Belltown, and the disabling of critical police surveillance cameras. Residents say these issues reflect systemic neglect and chaos. The petition is now under legal review by the Prosecuting Attorney’s Office to determine if it meets the threshold for malfeasance — a key requirement before a recall election can be held. If approved, supporters will race against time to gather enough valid signatures to put the recall on the ballot.
