Race for McIver's Open City Council Seat: And Then There Were Six
The jam-packed race for City Council position eight just got a little more so today as Bobby Forch, 53, announced his intention to run.

City Council position eight is currently filled by Richard McIver, but he's not going to run for re-election. Forch isn't yet listed on the Seattle Election's Web site, but his candidacy makes him the sixth contender for McIver's open seat.

Forch is a strategic adviser at Seattle’s Dept. of Transportation. According to his press release, he has a “10-year track record of helping people and businesses successfully navigate city government.” As a strategic adviser for S.D.O.T., Forch has been “advising staff on business outreach and contracting for projects like the King Street Station, the Alaskan Way Viaduct and Mercer Street.”
