Candidates for the open City Council Position 9 seat debated safe streets and other walking, biking and transit issues yesterday during a Move All Seattle Sustainably forum. Nikkita Oliver, Brianna Thomas and Sara Nelson attended. As with the recent mayoral forum, Erica C. Barnett moderated. Watch below (you can read the automated transcript with video time stamps here).

The August 3 primary is coming up quickly, and ballots will be mailed July 14. If you have moved recently, the easiest way to vote is to register or change your address online ASAP so that your ballot is mailed to the correct place on July 14. The deadline to register or change your address online in King County is July 26, though you can register and vote in-person through Election Day.
