PO1 William "Chip" Nagel that's what $$$ does... sometimes...
..."That said, the PAC money clearly gives Rivera a big advantage heading into Tuesday's primary by paying for ads that back her campaign. Separately, her campaign has raised an additional $77,000, which includes around $40,000 in public financing. The campaigns and PACs are not supposed to coordinate their efforts.
The same group of 18 donors to the University Neighbors Committee has also contributed to a second PAC called Elliot Bay Neighbors. That PAC is backing tech attorney Rob Saka in the open seat race for District 1 in West Seattle.
The top donors to the two PACs include Dunn Lumber ($25,000), Sinegal ($20,000), Kim Hemmingway ($20,000), George Petrie ($10,000), real estate billionaire John Goodman ($10,000), investor Joshua Green ($10,000), and real estate developer Matt Griffin, ($5,000).
A similar group backed Mayor Bruce Harrell and other candidates in 2021."
