The socialist candidate’s name will be one of eight, including Democratic mayor Greg Nickels, to appear on the September 20 primary election ballot.

“Hoeppner works in a meatpacking plant and has been active in unions and labor organizing,” an article in the July 23 Seattle Post-Intelligencer reported. That paper and the Seattle Times reported July 30 that Hoeppner was on the ballot.

The Socialist Workers Party slate also includes Cecelia Moriarity for King County executive and David Rosenfeld for city council.
