Quick action that can make a big difference ⬇️

A graphic with a speech quote design. The quote reads: "Local elections provide voters with great opportunities to exercise their civic rights and weigh in on issues that have a real impact on their communities. County elections officials across the state are hard at work ensuring our local elections are safe, secure, and accessible." At the bottom, it says Steve Hobbs, Washington Secretary of State. The background features geometric shapes in shades of purple, blue, and black.

Washington counties participating in the April 28 special election have officially mailed ballots to eligible voters. The 18-day voting period began on Friday, April 10. Read the full news release: https://bit.ly/4mv399Y
