Long Time Reporter Joel Connelly Retiring

The Cascadia Advocate reports veteran Seattle P-I political reporter Joel Connelly will pack up his  pen and pad and retire on June 30 of this year.
Connelly is the last on the staff who worked for the P-I when it put out a daily print edition.  The paper went online only 11 years ago and the rest of the staff from that time have retired or left for other projects.
Connelly has been with the P-I since 1973 when he covered the reelection campaign of Seattle Mayor Wes Uhlman.
We wish him well.
