Did anyone read the article? It seems the minimum wage has little impact there. Most of the jobs are high tech and construction, and most jobs paid over $15 an hour already.

From the article itself:

Much of that success, though, can be attributed to trends separate from the minimum-wage law itself, such as the growth of Seattle?s tech sector and its construction boom, according to a new report that University of Washington researchers presented to the City Council on Monday.
