Democrats endorse all three candidates for open Shoreline Council seat

Democrats in the 32nd Legislative District have endorsed all three candidates for an open Shoreline City Council position.

At their June 14 meeting the local Democrats split their endorsement among candidates Carolyn Ahlgren, Susan Chang, and Bergith Kayyali who are running in the August 1 primary for the position that Shari Winstead is leaving. The top two vote-getters in the primary qualify for the November 7 general-election ballot.

We recently reported that the local Democrats had not endorsed any of the three. The organization's website did not show an endorsement for the position.

After that story appeared, two people who attended the June 14 meeting gave us the updated information.

Our recent post correctly reported that the Democrats had given early endorsements to incumbent Shoreline Councilman Chris Roberts and to Jin-Ah Kim, who is challenging incumbent Councilman Keith McGlashan in November.
