Abolitionist or Republican? Stark choice in Seattle race

November's election for Seattle City Attorney pits a Republican versus an extreme liberal candidate who wants to cease most prosecutions of misdemeanor cases, saying the existing system is racist. In many ways the contest has overshadowed the mayoral race as Seattleites will be asked to decide just how far they are willing to go to back social justice policies. (AP Photo/Ted S. Warren, File)
