Does not listen or even engage meaningfully with constituents. Ignores inquiries and concerns.

O'Brien's actions, devoid of even a lick of common sense, are a betrayal of the people who elected him. He's got to go, the sooner the better.

A Council member who on one hand complains of financial irresponsibility regarding the north precinct then on the other backs more money for a failed bike rental company and wants to expand it. Your positions on homelessness are all wrong too. Time for you to go.

Ballard needs real solutions for the homelessness problem. Not campsites.

Council member O'Brien is out of touch & heading toward insanity. NO common sense. Beholden to special interests, yet continues to take more & more from the middle class taxpayers, while dismissing them as NIMBYS & worse. Public Safety & Health let alone quality of life for long time residents who pay his salary are of no concern to him. He cannot be trusted & must be removed from office.

I have historically been very liberal in my ideologies, but watching Mike O'Brien, spout ideology, but no common sense solutions thus far, I am unimpressed with him as a council member. I applaud his heart, but we need leaders who are able to represent all sides and create actionable, reasonable plans. In my opinion, he is not that leader.

Our representatives should be working for the people they represent not for themselves.

O'Brien: Listen to the people you are supposed to be representing, not those funding your campaign.

We need someone to actually represent property owners and tax payers, not people that do are ruining the city

Horrible! Does not consider the health and safety of ALL citizens, including the homeless.

Mike O'Brien seems to prioritize everyone other than the people who actually reside in District 6. He was elected to represent our district, yet he continues to champion causes that have ill effect on our neighborhood. It is clear he is chasing his idealistic causes regardless of their impact to our district.

Mike seems to be living in some sort of alternate universe.
