Nick Duda vs. Teresa Mosqueda: King County District 8
Nick Duda is a first-time candidate with no political background, no name recognition, and no institutional support — and he filed for King County Council District 8 on the last possible day because nobody else would step up to challenge incumbent Teresa Mosqueda.
He joins John Curley for a wide-ranging interview that covers everything from Mosqueda's 2020 pledge to defund 50% of the police, to the $1 billion King County has spent on homelessness through KCRHA while chronic homelessness rose 850%, to a statistic Duda discovered inside City Hall that stopped him cold: you have an 80% higher chance of dying from a fatal overdose inside permanent supportive housing than on the street.
