The Seattle Times reiterates its endorsement of a NO vote on King County’s Prop 1 due to King County Metro’s lack of transparency and troubles with telling the truth. From http://seattletimes.com/html/editorials/2023409525_editproponemetro19xml.htmlthe Times,
“Another specter looming over Tuesday’s ballot measure is Metro’s expired contract with the Amalgamated Transit Union, which represents drivers. A contract settled before Proposition 1 was put on the ballot would have given voters a better idea of the county’s seriousness in reining in labor costs. Meanwhile, the union’s local and international organizations each have contributed $20,000 to the pro campaign that, if successful, no doubt would take the pressure off.”
