## Resource

Washington State auditors are urging voters to use secure, monitored ballot drop boxes instead of mailing ballots this year, as USPS changes and processing delays threaten timely delivery. With ballots now traveling farther and postmark dates not always matching actual receipt, there’s no guarantee your mailed vote will be counted. Drop boxes, emptied daily and tracked online, offer certainty — you can drop off your ballot by 8 PM on Election Day and watch it go through. Vote early, vote safe, and make sure your voice is heard.
