Three Shoreline City Council incumbents have raised big money for the coming election even though none have to run in the Aug. 6 primary, and only one has an opponent in the Nov. 5 general election.
Councilman Christopher Roberts, the only incumbent with a November opponent, has reported raising $3,571 and spending $1,769. Challenger Michael Javorski has yet to report any fundraising or spending.
Unopposed incumbent Shari Winstead has raised the most money among Shoreline candidates -- $7,060 -- and spent $1,469.
Unopposed incumbent Will Hall reports having raised $6,463 and spent $89.
Unopposed incumbent Keith McGlashan has reported no money raised or spent.

Since they’re unopposed, maybe candidates Winstead and Hall will forgo raising and spending money and will concentrate on constituent's questions at the candidate forums.
And Mayor McGlashan (to forgo raising and spending money and concentrating on constituent's questions at candidate's forums, too)...
If Councilman Hall and Councilwoman Winstead raise money that they don't spend, they can hold it over for another campaign (for this or another office), they can give it to another candidate, they can return it to donors, or they can give it to charity (as former State Sen. Darlene Fairley did when she retired with money left in her campaign fund),
