Rachael Savage
Rachael Savage owns The Vajra, a jewelry and incense shop on Capitol Hill, and runs a meditation and addiction recovery nonprofit. She is in recovery herself and has been a vocal critic of Seattle’s response to the drug crisis and homelessness.

Savage initially entered the race for mayor, but pivoted to running for the citywide Council seat before the May 9 filing deadline. Though Seattle’s elected positions are nonpartisan, Savage has said she joined the Republican party because of her disappointment with Democrats’ handling of drugs and public disorder.

Savage wants to see police arresting more people who use drugs and people with untreated mental illness in public. She wants to create new long-term residential treatment facilities “away from our city neighborhoods” to help people with recovery. Savage opposes the “housing first” approach to permanent supportive housing that moves people off the street without insisting they address their addictions first.
