Not all voters will receive voters’ pamphlets

Voters’ pamphlets are distributed in ballot packets to voters in districts that requested to print a pamphlet. In special elections, jurisdictions must choose whether or not to participate and pay for a voters’ pamphlet. Five jurisdictions (Enumclaw, Issaquah, Shoreline, Snoqualmie Valley and Kent school districts) chose not to participate in a voters’ pamphlet.

All voters will receive information in their ballot packets about how and where to return ballots. This information, details about measures on ballots, and much more is always available atwww.kingcounty.gov/elections
