Running out of time to register – and another vote note

checkbox.jpgTomorrow’s the last day you can register to vote in the general election (E-Day is November 4th but the state starts sending out mail-in ballots within a couple weeks). Various groups plan registration drives around West Seattle on Saturday, but you can also do the deed online right now by going here. If you vote by mail, by the way, you will have an in-person dropoff option in West Seattle starting October 17th (and continuing round-the-clock through 8 pm on Election Day, 11/4) at the Delridge Neighborhood Services Center (one of only two such dropoffs in the entire city!). And when it comes time to make your voting decisions – you can find lots of info links (voters’ guides, official websites for candidates and ballot measure supporter/opponents, debate schedules, more) on the WSB Election page.

    Just be aware (channeling my mom voice) it has profanity. We’re all grownups here as far as I know but should include that disclaimer … TR

    (Lots of stars! I don’t even recognize ’em all)

    Oops, yup, you’re right TR. Especially if you are listening to it via speakers, at work! :) Thanks.

    hehehe…add…thanks for putting that here. I think the few profane words included is why I put it in the forums…but it definitely needs to be here.

    I get really ticked off at people who say they won’t vote because it won’t matter, tat it will just be the same, etc, etc. Well, yeah, if we all took that attitude, I suppose it would.

    Just don’t be whining to me when you don’t like the outcome if you didn’t exercise your rights…

    TR, I may have recently turned 50, but I haven’t yet grown up!

    As of tomorrow I’m a year short of that and I don’t feel grown up either, so I’m with ya there.

Sorry, comment time is over.
