Secretary of State urges voters to prepare for the election now
SPOKANE, Wash.– The Office of the Secretary of State is recommending voters start preparing for the November election now.
In a statement, elections director Lori Augino highlighted the importance of having accurate information ahead of this year’s vote.
“As Americans our right to vote is sacred, yet with that right comes responsibility,” said Augino. “The key to ensuring our votes matter is to not only know the candidates and understand the issues, but learn how, when, and where to cast our ballots. It is imperative that we encourage voters to get their election information from trusted, reliable sources.”
