Nov. 4 General Election ballots mailed out to registered voters in Thurston County

The Thurston County Auditor's Elections Division mailed out more than 200,000 ballots to voters for the Nov. 4 General Election.

All registered voters in Thurton County should receive a ballot. The ballots were mailed out last week.

"Any registered voter who thinks they should have received a ballot, but hasn’t by Wednesday, (Oct. 22) should contact the Elections Division at 360.786.5408 or elections@co.thurston.wa.us. Ballots for military and overseas voters registered in Thurston County were mailed on Friday, (Sept. 19)," said the Elections Division in an announcement about the ballots.

The Elections Division has also opened 31 secure ballot drop boxes. A list of ballot drop box locations and addresses is included in the mailed ballot materials and online.  

For voters who are mailing ballots, those ballots must be postmarked by Nov. 4. No stamp is needed to mail a ballot.

Beginning a week before Election Day, voters can use a ballot drop box to ensure their ballot is received on time. Drop boxes are open until 8 p.m. on Tuesday, Nov. 4.

The Thurston County Auditor’s Elections Division is a designated voting center during business hours beginning Oct. 15.

Voters may register to vote, update their current registration, obtain a ballot, or use a voting assistance device at the Voting Center.
