Primary election results continue to roll in. And sure, your head may have been turned by that flashy State Lands Commissioner race.

But if you’re a Seattle resident, a very consequential city council contest should also be on your radar.

The at-large 8th district seat is up for grabs this November. The citywide position was formerly held by Teresa Mosqueda. Last year, she won a spot on the King County Council.

Tanya Woo, a business owner and community organizer in the Chinatown International District, was appointed to the vacated city council seat earlier this year. She is now running to win that seat outright.

But a progressive challenger Alexis Mercedes-Rinck had a dominant showing in last week’s primary. And she may be on track to make Woo’s stint on the council a short one.
