Registration for this event is FULL. A limited number of standby tickets may be available at the venue. This year’s talked-about Seattle City Council elections–the first under a new districted system–shook up the primaries for some interesting results. At Town Hall we love a good political debate, so in the spirit of democracy and discussion, we’re teaming up with Seattle Channel to present a series of live debates (with moderated Q&A) for each of the seven districts. Learn more about the candidates running in your district–and don’t forget to vote on November 3.

District 6 debate: Mike O’Brien, current Seattle City Council Member, and Catherine Weatbrook, Co-Chair of the City Neighborhood Council.

Moderators: Lead moderator Ted Inkley, Phinney Ridge Community Council Board; community moderator Mike Stewart, Executive Director of Ballard Chamber of Commerce; community moderator Carolyn Law, Artist and Public Arts Consultant; and Q&A moderator Edward Wolcher, Town Hall Community Programs Curator.

Have a question for the candidates? Tweet a question using #seacouncil or send your questions for the candidates to debates@townhallseattle.org help us shape the conversation. We may ask your question at the event. Please specify which district race you’re writing about.

Additional location info: Please note, this debate takes place in the brick Community Hall building on Dayton.
