A King County Superior Court judge has ruled that a recall effort of Seattle Councilmember Kshama Sawant can move forward.
Judge Jim Rogers ruled that 4 of 6 charges filed in the recall petition were sufficient enough to proceed.
The petition accuses Sawant of violating her role as a council member during the height of Seattle protests. Recall organizers allege a series of violations, including that Sawant used her passkey to City Hall, allowing protesters into the building, and that she appeared at a protest outside Mayor Jenny Durkan’s Seattle home.
