Normally a mayoral candidate opening a regional campaign office would be a hum-drum bit of news that even the Daily Weekly would ignore. But when that candidate is the same candidate whose campaign momentarily forgot that Empire Way became Martin Luther King Jr. Way in the ’80s, and then announces he’ll be opening said regional office on MLK Way within the same week, well, that’s just too rich.So, without further ado: Mike McGinn will be opening a Southeast Seattle office this Saturday at 6951 MLK Wy. S., Suite 223. A kickoff party, to which the public is invited, will commence at 3:15. Bookending that bender will be two southside town hall meetings, with details after the jump.TOWN HALL AT THE COLUMBIA BRANCH OF THE SEATTLE PUBLIC LIBRARYWHEN: 10:30am, Saturday, September 19thWHERE: 4721 Rainier Ave STOWN HALL AT THE JEFFERSON COMMUNITY CENTER ON BEACON HILLWHEN: 8pm, Saturday, September 19thWHERE: 3801 Beacon Ave S
