Ballots mailed

Mason County ballots should begin arriving this week in residents’ mailboxes for the Nov. 7 general election. The ballots were mailed Tuesday.

Each voter must sign their own Declaration envelope and then the signature is matched to the signature in the voters’ registration record, Mason County Election Superintendent Marie Stevenson said. If voters do not receive a ballot, they can call the Vote Center at 360-427-9670 ext. 470 to request a replacement.

Ballot drop boxes are open until 8 p.m. on Election Day and no postage is required to return a ballot by mail postmarked no later than Nov. 7.

Election officials recommend mailing ballots no later than Nov. 3.
