VOTE: Get your primary ballot to West Seattle’s new dropbox by 8 pm Tuesday

IMG_1943

Thanks to Ken Gollersrud at the High Point Library for the photo reminding us all that West Seattle’s new permanent King County Elections dropbox awaits your ballot – cutoff time for your primary vote is tomorrow (Tuesday, August 2nd) at 8 pm. You can mail it, too, but that’ll cost you a stamp; using the dropbox is free.

The decisions you’ll be making in this election include two ballot measures for voters in Seattle only – the 7-year Housing Levy and the “elevated downtown park” proposal, Initiative 123.

You also will narrow the fields for the 7th Congressional District seat, as well as U.S. Senate, Governor, Lt. Governor, and other statewide offices, plus races for State Supreme Court and King County Superior Court, and one 34th District State House seat.

The dropbox is just north of the library, along SW Raymond east of 35th SW [map].

    Does this mean there is no drop off at the WS stadium tomorrow?

      Correct. No more ballot vans; the county installed dropboxes instead.

    Please vote!  I’d love everyone to vote my way, but please vote even if we don’t agree on who to elect.  It’s incredibly important.  If you’re not happy with our elected officials, now is the time to make a huge impact.

    Done! Certainly nice to have that dropbox. I didn’t even hear my envelope land so I’m hoping that means lots of votes are in there waiting to be counted :)

    what happened to the progressive voters guide?

      We don’t generally link to voters’ guides beyond the official pamphlet but I googled that phrase and seattle and one came right up …

    Used it this morning! It’s really nice to have a permanent ballot box that’s closer to my home than the post office is.

    Whatever happened to the pragmatic center left?  Property taxes keep going up up up.  Apartment rents go up in tandem with every increase in property taxes.

    Vote!
