From Ballot Access News:
The Seattle Times has this article about Socialist Alternative Party, and its hopes to greatly increase the number of candidates it runs for both non-partisan office and partisan office.
From the article cited, written by Emily Heffter:
Locker’s goals reach beyond membership. He would like to see Seattle’s major labor groups leave behind their longtime allies in the Democratic Party to support Socialist Alternative candidates instead.
He wants to elect a slate of Socialist Alternative candidates, taking on housing, wages and health-care issues.
At a recent Sawant news conference, representatives from the faith community, the NAACP (National Association for the Advancement of Colored People) and SEIU (Service Employees International Union) Local 775NW stood alongside Socialist Alternative activists.
