This week is filing week, which, in the words of King County Democrats Chair Shasti Conrad, is like our Super Bowl. Along with Left Wing Digital's Will Casey, we talk all about the specifics of filing for office, and how enthusiasm for running is way up this year's odd-year election*.

*Also, it's not "off-year," because, as the title declares, there are no off-years!

In the second half, Shasti chats with Bothell City Councilmember Mason Thompson about his incredibly close race, and how that has implications for how turnout and grassroots work make all the difference.
