Let’s Talk About Tacoma Charter Proposals on the 2024 Election Ballot

Crossing Division

Well, here we are, three weeks from the general election. So many critical races, so many huge issues! This episode of Crossing Division is a companion to the Nerd Farmer voters’ guide podcast. We will cover the Supreme Court positions, and then we will go local, super local.

Because in addition to all the national and state campaigns, we have Tacoma election issues too. Specifically, six proposed amendments to the Tacoma City Charter. Boring? No. Infuriating? You bet!

Hosts Evelyn and Joe Lopez review the proposed charter amendments, compare them with the recommendations of the Charter Review Committee, and consider whether any should be approved. (Spoiler: none of them.)
