The deadline to register to vote or update voter registration information in time for the August 6 primary election is July 8.

King County Elections will mail primary ballots to all registered voters on July 17, so it’s important citizens register to vote and keep their address and other information, including their signature, updated.

Voters can check to make sure their registration information is current by using the My Voter Guide online or calling the voter hotline at 206-296-VOTE (8683).

Citizens can register vote online, by mail or in person at King County Election or the Voter Registration Annex.

Voters who miss the July 8 deadline to update their registration should still contact the Elections office to update their information for future elections. King County residents not currently registered in Washington can register in person after July 8 at the Elections office through July 29.

Who can register?

To be eligible to register to vote, you must be:

·         18 years old by election day (August 6)

·         A United States citizen

·         A legal resident of the state of Washington

·         Not under the authority of the Department of Corrections

Voters can visit the Elections website, www.kingcounty.gov/elections, or call the Elections office at 206-296-VOTE for assistance and information.
