The 2023 Seattle City Council election was held on November 7, 2023, following a primary election on August 1.[1] The seven district-based seats of the nine-member Seattle City Council are up for election; the districts were modified based on the results of the 2020 census.[2] Four incumbent members of the city council did not seek reelection.[3]
All seven contests in the general election were between a more moderate candidate endorsed by The Seattle Times and a more progressive candidate endorsed by The Stranger.[4]Seattle Times endorsees won 5 of the 7 races, marking a significant shift from the 2019 Seattle City Council election, in which more progressive Stranger-endorsed candidates won 6 of the 7 contested seats.
