DescriptionKing County Prosecutor Dan Satterberg, elected to three terms as a Republican, now says he’s a Democrat.

Satterberg confirmed his shift in an interview Tuesday morning, acknowledging that it was prompted in part by facing his first-ever re-election challenge this year, from longtime public defender Daron Morris — a self-described “lifelong Democrat” who quickly slammed Satterberg’s announcement as opportunistic.

The office of King County prosecutor was changed to be officially nonpartisan in a voter-approved county charter amendment in 2016. So Satterberg and Morris will appear on the ballot without any party affiliation.
