  1. Here's a summary of all districts' aggregate votes on social housing (#YesOnI135).

  2. Lastly, the newly revised District 7 also voted #YesOnI135 in aggregate, although had Magnolia remained a part of the district, it likely would have ended up a net "no". #waelex

  3. In the northern District 5, coastal precincts opposed the social housing measure, but precincts closer to I-5 voted #YesOnI135. (Due to a slight irregularity in the precinct shapefile, a few districts south of the D5 boundary are in this view.) #waelex

  4. In District 4, the contrast between neighborhoods was on show: Wallingford skewed #YesOnI135, while eastern neighborhoods including Laurelhurst and Sand Point went "no". #waelex

  5. District 3 strongly supported #YesOnI135 in the densely populated centers of Capitol Hill and the Central District, with the strongest bastion of "no" in the Broadmoor and the shore of Lake Washington. #waelex

  6. Most precincts in District 2, in southern Seattle, voted #YesOnI135; the measure led nearly 2:1 in the final tally. #waelex

  7. Many precincts went "no" in western District 1, but thanks to support in densely-populated areas, #YesOnI135 led slightly in the district overall. #waelex

  8. Bonus visualization time! Here's the February 2023 special election for social housing (#YesOnI135), using the 2024 Seattle City Council districts (used for the first time in elections this year).

    First, my home district, District 6, which now includes much of Magnolia. #waelex

  11. #YesOnI135, Seattle's social housing measure, is leading by 5 percentage points in early returns.

    Yes: 53,824 (52.82%)
    No: 48,085 (47.18%)

    Total turnout: 21.23% of registered voters.

    King County Elections expects a total turnout of about 33%, but the first ballot drop is cause for optimism. #WAelex

  12. Looking forward to counting the #YesOnI135 votes once ballot boxes close at 8:00 pm PST!

    Per-precinct data should be available on 2/16 (Election Night) and 2/27 (final). Will publish visualizations when each is available. #waelex

  13. It's time for Seattle to fund a new public developer to build, buy, and maintain housing for low- and middle-income residents. Vote #YesOnI135 and get your ballot in by February 14!

  15. Seattle— easiest vote ever! Ballots just dropped and mine is already back in outgoing mail.

    There's just one thing on the ballot, and I gathered signatures with @[email protected] @[email protected] to put it there— vote yes on I-135 for social housing!

  16. Thanks to the leaders in Affordable Talaris for hosting a great canvass! #SeattleSocialHousing #YesOnI135 #Seattle #housing #HousingJustice

    It was great talking to so many voters in Lake City — most didn’t know there’s an election coming up and were very excited to learn more about social housing.
