Seattle CM Morales was a big proponent of defunding the police in 2020, and the then council took steps in that direction, cut the salary of the police chief, etc.

Reichert tells KOMO News:

'In all nine of my previous campaigns, I have won without any games or antics such as these. I don't support any effort to deceive.'
