Monday deadline to register to vote in primary election

By Evan Smith

Monday, July 7, is the last day for voters to register by mail or online for the Aug. 5 primary election, or for currently registered Washington voters to change their voting addresses.

Voters who want to register by mail can get material at many libraries and at most post offices, or they can download forms from the King County elections website or the secretary of state's website.

Voters can register online by following links from either website. The secretary of state's registration web site is www.vote.wa.gov. The King County Elections website is here.

New Washington voters can register through July 28, but they must register at the county elections office in Renton or at the voter registration annex in the county administration building in downtown Seattle.
