Mayor Murray Resigns (Finally)
It was quite the waiting game but I would suppose having five people accuse you of molestation might cause you to act.It did for Mayor Ed Murray.
I believe this whole episode has weakened the office of Mayor and, indirectly, city activities. Bruce Harrell hasn't said if he will be mayor or not (he's the president of the City Council and first in line but apparently, doesn't have to take the job).
He also said when this all came out earlier this year in The Stranger;
And I would ask that I don't want to be judged for anything 33 years ago."
Really? Because I can think of murder, rape and molestation victims who might ask that their perpetrators be held to account for crimes committed, no matter how long ago.
Now he says to The Stranger:
"These accusations are unspeakable and require the utmost attention from our legal and social service system no matter how long ago they might have occurred."
A little late to the party, eh, President Harrell, unlike Kshama Sawant and Lorena Gonzalez who DID say earlier this year that he should step down.
Meanwhile, mayoral candidate Jenny Durkan who sought and received Murray's endorsement also finally decided it was enough and called for his resignation today. (Earlier she had said he needed to take a very long, hard look at the issue but that was it.) Seems a little late to me but I find much of Durkan's behavior as a candidate to be vague and self-serving.
