Register to vote or update voter registration information online

Citizens who want to vote in the November 6 general election have until Monday, October 8 to register to vote or update voter registration information online or by mail.

King County Elections will mail general election ballots to all registered voters on October 17, so it’s important that citizens register to vote and keep their address and other information, including their signature, updated.

Voters can check to make sure their registration information is current by:

• Using My Voter Information online

Voters who miss the October 8 deadline to update their registration should still contact the Elections office to update their information for future elections. King County residents not currently registered in Washington can register in person at the Elections office through October 29.
