Did you know? You can use any official ballot drop box in Washington and local elections officials will forward your ballot to where it needs to be to get counted. Locations of drop boxes across King County are at kce.wiki/DropBox

Kent voters! There’s a new official ballot drop box outside Kent Kangley Safeway. When the box was installed yesterday, I learned we can switch which side the door is on, so trained ballot pickup teams can access the box safely and securely.
