In the open Position 3 City Council seat, Erika Barnett maintained her 53%-47% edge over Alex Newman.
Thursday’s vote count also remained the same for Proposition 1, with 40% voting for the measure and 60% voting against it.

Glenda, Thanks for running. Your energy, intelligence, business knowledge and wisdom would have been a great needed addition to the City Council. I hope that you will consider running for office in the future.

Glenda you are and were the best . Sorry voters didn’t see it that way. Thanks for your effort.
Glenda didn’t lose because she was the poorer candidate, she lost in a non-partisan election because she isn’t a Democrat. We have too many uninformed voters in our city. Look at the Chen race; 1758 voters voted for a candidate who withdrew months ago.
In elections it is common to have someone voting for Uncle Sam as a write-in candidate. A few years back I read of a convict getting more votes than an unpopular candidate. Protest votes happen in many different ways. Yeah, some of those 1758 voters may have been uninformed that Candidate Chen’s opponent had withdrawn. How many uninformed voters in Edmonds are too many? One might be tempted to say “1 too many” after reading your comment!
Or…they were protest votes.
Thats right Alicia. I voted for Will and I expect him to be moderate now and in the future. I have done write ins in protest for legislators etc in many elections. I am trying to stop the crazy all over this country while we still have one. I did vote for you Alicia.
Glenda, please run for a future office. We need you! Thank you for for effort, next time more people will realize how great you are!
I did not vote for Eck. I AM a Democrat. I am very disappointed that I received a text from an unknown number thanking me for voting for Eck!
Hi Buck – For the record we didn’t send out texts like that, thanking voters for their vote since we wouldn’t have had access to that information, so I’m unsure of who would have sent those. Thanks for letting us know however.
The way I see it there are two kinds of Republicans. Alt Right and mainly moderate with most social issues. The Democrats are now split too and they are moderate centrist types and also very far to far Left ( progressives is what they call themselves. It gets really old being a Democrat and because I may not share the need for every tax on the planet or having every thing Union + others views and ideals stuffed down my throat
I am a registered Dem and I am so disappointed in my party for allowing this split to happen. I am also disappointed in the Republican party for the same reason. I did not vote for Eck either. I am guessing she is a nice person but I am also pretty sure from watching the CC meetings, associations and extra curricular type things for 7 years or more that I know extreme when I see it. So yeah quit trying to paint Dems as R wing nuts because they might not share all of your ideals. I am not a Socialist. I do not want to be a Socialist and I will fight it till my dying day. Peace Out. Edmonds is split because of these extremes as is the country. Politicians are actors particularly when they are running for office.
