Kerner is running against incumbent Andrew Lewis and other challengers including Olga Sagan, owner of Piroshky Piroshky; Robert Kettle, retired U.S. Navy.; Aaron Marshall, Seattle Police Officer; and Wade Sowders, software engineer at Amazon.

So as far as retention goes, I think we need to start recruiting newer police officers that are better equipped to police their own communities that they work in.
