Voters’ pamphlets mailed

The state’s Voters’ pamphlet is arriving in mailboxes this week and should be received by voters by Oct. 22.

Provided by the state’s Elections Division, it includes information about state candidates and measures found on the Nov. 6 ballot.

It includes information on the two statewide initiatives: Initiative 517, the “Initiatives on Initiatives” that grants more time and protection for signature gatherers, and I-522, which addresses labeling for genetically engineered foods.

In addition, the Voters’ Pamphlet provides information on the five non binding advisory votes on revenue-related bills passed by the state legislature.

Elections Division is mailing it to 3.2 million households throughout Washington. It is delivered to every household in the state as required by the Washington Constitution.

Accessible audio and text formats are available for voters who are blind or have limited vision.
