Spokane County voters have until 8 p.m. on November 3 to return their ballots. With Postal Service delivery potentially too slow, official drop boxes remain available. Spokane County auditor Vicky Dalton said anyone relying on mail should bring the ballot inside a post office and hand it over directly.

County turnout stood at 37% over the weekend. Dalton anticipates it will ultimately reach about 60% to 65%. A single results batch will appear Tuesday night, followed by nightly revisions through the week as counting continues. Those updates will be posted on VoteWA.gov and the Spokane County Elections homepage. Dalton said the first totals should shift as additional ballots are processed.

Ballots with valid postmarks may arrive later. Voters contacted about a missing or mismatched signature have through November 23 to correct it. Certification is scheduled for November 24. Replacement ballots and voter registration are available Tuesday from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. at service centers in the Spokane County Fairgrounds and CenterPlace in Spokane Valley.
