The Green Party of Washington has formally endorsed independent socialist Kshama Sawant for US Congress in Washington’s 9th District. Kshama is challenging incumbent Democrat Adam Smith, a genocidal warmonger who has been in office for 29 years.
The Kshama Sawant campaign met with the Green Party of Washington on July 14, 2026, to mobilize to get out the vote for the August 4th primary election and plan mutual support.
Kshama is the socialist who won landmark victories for working people as a Seattle City Councilmember by building movements to fight and defeat the billionaire class and their political servants. We need all hands on deck in the coming weeks to turn out the vote by August 4th so that she can advance to November’s general election for a head-to-head against Adam Smith.

“The Green Party of Washington has formally and proudly endorsed Kshama Sawant for Congress in the 9th District,” announced Marc Mixon, Chair of the Green Party of Washington, following the July 14th meeting.
In addition, the Green Party of Washington and its local Seattle chapter have an ambitious plan to field Green Party candidates for the 2027 Seattle City Council elections in all seven districts. Beginning in 2027, Seattle City Council elections will be conducted by ranked choice voting.
“I’m excited about joining the Green Party and supporting its plans in Seattle and around the state, and I am grateful for the party’s endorsement of my campaign for Congress,” said Kshama, whose grassroots campaigns won multiple terms to Seattle City Council and defeated a billionaire-funded recall effort.
