From my personal experience in tech, people are going to live where they want to live when the distance is as small as it is between Bellevue and Seattle.

I'll add here that I think Harrell's child care attacks backfired big time even among what we'd consider generally well off parents. Folks in my non-political group chats were *pissed* that he was so obtuse and mean spirited about the cost of care.

I'm sure tech workers who live on Capitol Hill are proponents of painting a bus lane on Denny! The ones who are opposed don't live in Seattle so they want to get to I-5 asap.

I don't think we have polling by occupation but I really doubt that young highly educated tech workers are voting for Bruce Harrell or Sarah Nelson in large numbers.
