The Municipal League of King County process is on its face unfair to challengers
as opposed to incumbents, because the kind of questions they ask in regards
to insight into policy is something that an incumbent, as opposed to a challenger, works with on a regular basis and would have inside knowledge about particular city workings that would be virtually impossible or very difficult
for others to have, including information from subordinate city officials that they, but few others, have direct access to. Why
incumbents should conceivably get a better rating because of their inside
knowledge is a question that the Municipal League hasn't countered too well over
the years, but a rigged process is something they apparently just take for granted.
