Hannah Sabio-Howell Makes Her Case to Jake & Spike

Hannah Sabio-Howell — the progressive challenger running against Senate Majority Leader Jamie Pedersen in Washington's 43rd Legislative District — joined Jake and Spike LIVE in studio for a spirited, respectful, and genuinely fun back-and-forth.

Sabio-Howell is a self-described democratic socialist running as a Democrat. She's a former legislative aide, communications specialist, and labor organizer with Working Washington. She reached out to the show after a previous guest — political consultant Sandeep Kaushik — called Mayor Katie Wilson's endorsement of her campaign "dumb politics." Sabio-Howell wanted to make her own case.
