Females elected mayor in major cities along Interstate 5

Major cities in Washington State have elected females as mayors.  Seattle it is Jenny Durkan.  Everett it is still a toss up between Cassie Franklin or Judy Tuohy.  Black Diamond it is Carol Benson.  Issaquah it is Mary Lou Pauly.  Kent it is Debra Srebnik.  Tacoma it is Victoria Woodards, Vancouver it is Anne McEnerny and Lynnwood it is Nicola Smith.  It is interesting these cities think a female can lead these cities into prosperity.  I wish all these mayors well.  Issaquah has grown over 500 percent since my childhood in the 1980's.  I am hoping that Mary Lou can continue the friendly pace of the city being friendly to business.  This city has provided a lot of tax breaks for incoming business.  Snoqualmie my hometown has adopted this same model.  Vancouver needs to find its own identity stop being in the shadow of Portland.  Everett needs to stop crime.  Seattle needs to become more business friendly.  Kent and Issaquah needs to continue to take advantage of Seattle anti-business friendly city council.  Kent has taken advantage of SeaTac's high minimum wage taking business from both Seattle and SeaTac it has improved its industrial base.  This city has provided tax breaks.  Tacoma needs to some day clean that bay.  Get rid of the 150 years of rotting logs smell in Commencement Bay.  They need to get rid of rising crime rate that the city has had for over 30 years.  This city just like Anchorage has been overwhelmed by an opioid crisis.  Lynnwood needs to continue to operate a business friendly environment by offering tax breaks.  This city has been growing like crazy since the 1980's it is kind of the Issaquah of the north at a slower pace.
