Ballots and voters’ pamphlets for the primary election have been mailed to 1.1 million registered voters in King County.

“Voting begins the day you get your ballot in the mail” said Sherril Huff, King County Elections director. “Ballots must be returned no later than election day on Aug. 17, and our office is here to help, so be an informed voter and visit us online, call or stop by to get your questions answered.”

Ballots can be returned by mail through the U.S. Postal Service, requiring a first class stamp, and must by postmarked by Aug. 17. Ballots may also be returned at a ballot drop box by 8 p.m. Aug. 17. Ballot Drop Boxes are located at the King County Elections office in Tukwila and in downtown Seattle at the King County Administration Building.
