Thanks for the photos! Another day off to a beautiful start. First and most important highlight:

ELECTION DAY: Everything you need to know (including links to candidate/ballot measure info) is in this reminder we published last night. 8 pm is your deadline to get your ballot to a dropbox – High Point Library is the ONLY ballot dropbox in West Seattle (SW Raymond just east of 35th SW) – no stamp required; if you are mailing it, get it to the Post Office in time to be sure it’ll have today’s postmark. One round of results is expected tonight, around 8:15 pm, and we of course will have an update here.
