Everett voters elect woman-majority council; Franklin wins easily

EVERETT — Voters made history Tuesday in the Everett City Council’s first general election with districts, ushering in a wave of first-time elected officials to create policies and approve the budget.

After years of familiar faces on the city council, it appeared set to welcome four new members, thanks to districts.

And if the totals hold, five councilmembers will be women, on a council that previously had more men.

Amid the new era for city council, the executive’s office likely will have the same leadership.

Cassie Franklin cruised to another four years as mayor over challenger Steve Oss.
