Seattle Mayor Harrell campaigns for reelection

It's not lost on Seattle Mayor Bruce Harrell that the city still has a lot of work ahead of it in order to achieve its major goals, but the progress Seattle has made in four short years has given Harrell the confidence that the Emerald City is on the right path.

There are eight candidates for the Mayor of Seattle on the primary ballot this year, with the incumbent leading the charge. When Harrell joined "Seattle's Morning News" on KIRO Newsradio, host Manda Factor asked him a simple question.

"Why do you want this job for another four years?" Factor asked Harrell.
