About SEAMEC
SEAMEC is an independent non-partisan candidate rating organization which
interviews, evaluates, and rates candidates for public office in Seattle,

activism, and past, present, and potential commitment to issues
specifically concerning the gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgendered
communities. Candidate interviews are conducted by panels of volunteers.
SEAMEC has been serving the community since 1977. Membership, active
participation, and donations are welcomed and encouraged.
