Is your voter registration current?

[Lurleen]

Every Vote Counts! Are you registered to vote? Is your voter registration address current? If not, act now! Monday, October 5 is the deadline to register online or by mail if you want to vote in the statewide November 3rd election. Citizens not currently registered to vote in Washington can still register in-person until Monday, October 26. However, this requires a visit to the King County Elections Office in Tukwila. Register online now and avoid the hassle.

A lot is at stake this election, and your vote counts! Referendum 71 asks voters to approve or reject the domestic partnership law that was passed this spring by the Legislature and signed by Governor Gregoire. Tim Eyman’s Initiative 1033 would cap state revenue. There are heated races for King County Executive and County Council, Seattle Mayor and City Council, Port of Seattle Commissioner and Seattle School Board.

Yes, it is, but worthy of a bump – good reminder!

Bump — great information and reminder, Lurleen; Thanks!

One slight modification the last step in “track your mail ballot” ends with signature verification. It doesn’t tell you when YOUR vote is counted. When you think about it, you don’t want it to be able to do that — if it could, it would be attaching your name to your “confidential” ballot. :-)

I don’t vote. I’m planning to run for mayor someday.
