Another article:

Wilson primarily campaigned on expanding workers’ rights, addressing the homelessness crisis in Seattle, and creating more affordable housing through social housing, rent control, and using public land for affordable development.

Meanwhile, Kshama Sawant is running for congress in Washington’s 9th Congressional district (central/south Seattle and its southeast suburbs).

I didn't watch a ton of the debates, but I didn't see what you're talking about. She seemed to be able to answer the questions just fine, although of course not at Mamdani level. Do you have any examples off the top of your head where she flubbed answers?

Was there a particular part of that you had in mind?

I watched the debate over a month ago and don't care to watch it again, but there were various points where she failed to deliver on details.
