King Conservation District seeks candidates for 2023 Board election
Monday, November 14, 2022
King Conservation District (KCD) is holding its annual Board Supervisor election January 24 - February 14, 2023. The candidate filing window for this election is December 5 – 9, 2022.
For the fourth year, the King Conservation District election will primarily rely on electronic ballot access.
Ballots will be available to eligible voters online from January 24, 2023, at 8am through February 14, 2023, at 8pm.
Voters may return ballots electronically through the online ballot access system or reach out to KCD for assistance. Democracy Live operates the online ballot access portal and King County Elections will tabulate all ballots and report all results.
To increase awareness of the election, for the third year, KCD will be mailing roughly 800,000 postcards to registered voter households in the district with information on how to vote in the board election. These postcards will arrive in mailboxes at the beginning of the voting period.
