Remember to vote in the Primary by Tuesday, August 6th!
Wondering whom to vote for?
As a reminder, the 46th District has endorsed in all races you will find on your Primary Ballot!
You can find those endorsements by clicking here
Your Primary ballot needs to be postmarked no later that August 6th to be counted, and the King County Election Office recommends that to ensure a timely postmark, voters mail their ballots by Friday, August 2nd.
After August 2nd, it is recommended that you take your ballots to a Ballot Drop Box by or on August 6th - Primary Election Day. Drop Boxes are open until 8:00pm sharp on the 6th!
There are drop boxes in Kenmore, Lake Forest Park, and ten inside or very near the 46th District portion of northeast Seattle. There are others located downtown, as well as many around King County.
