Otros Candidatos
There are four other candidates in the race for Kent City Council, Position 3.
Cody Clark has served as a volunteer firefighter. Though he has a campaign website, he has no information on what policies he would pursue if elected, stating only that he would work towards a brighter future for the community.
Michael Ferguson has no funds raised for his campaign, no website, and no policy details available as of mid July.
Jamie Lee is a member of the board of directors of the Kent Downtown Partnership. Her platform, though including some progressive ideas such as supporting access to treatment, unions for teachers, and promoting conservation, falls short of meeting the challenges faced by Kent. She rejects the comprehensive and sustainable solutions required to address the lack of affordable homes driving homelessness. Lee advocates for cutting social services for the rest of us, like SNAP, that she herself has benefited from. She wants to send militarized police forces into our communities rather than the things our communities actually need - education, health care, food security, and homes. As of mid July, Lee does not have an active campaign website or reported any campaign funds raised.
Kelly Wiggins-Crawford works as a litigation paralegal and claims to prioritize addressing the homeless crisis, protecting affordable housing, and creating a safe community. Despite a self-proclaimed approach of compassion and kindness, Wiggins-Crawford has attempted to make us fear those turning to cars and tents for shelter. She has testified before the city council, advocating for labeling everyone without a home a criminal by making homelessness itself a crime through encampment bans.
Wiggins-Crawford's campaign website lacks a comprehensive plan to effectively tackle homelessness and other significant challenges confronting Kent. This omission points to her inability to address these critical issues and implement tangible solutions.
