Clark County Elections to mail out special election ballots Friday

On Friday, Clark County Elections will mail ballots for the Feb. 14 special election to all eligible registered voters living within the city of Vancouver, Vancouver Public Schools, Washougal School District and Woodland Public Schools.

Eligible voters who have not received a ballot by Feb. 2 should call the elections office at 564-397-2345 to request a replacement ballot. While replacement ballots can be requested in person, staff are encouraging voters to make their requests by phone or email.

Requests can be emailed to elections@clark.wa.gov and by mail at Clark County Elections Office, P.O. Box 8815, Vancouver, WA 98666-8815. The elections office at 1408 Franklin St. in Vancouver is open Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. and from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Election Day.

After Jan. 29, replacement ballots can also be requested or accessed electronically at VoteWA.gov. Ballots should be printed out and returned by mail or at one of the 22 red drop boxes found across the county.

The last day to submit new voter registrations and voter updates to existing registrations online or by mail is 5 p.m. Feb. 6. Voters can still register and update existing voter registrations after Feb. 6 but must do so in person by 8 p.m. Feb. 14.

The process of preparing the ballot tabulation system that produces election results will begin at 7:15 p.m. on Feb. 14. Results will be posted on clarkvotes.org around 8:15 p.m. that same day.

An online voters’ guide and a sample ballot listing the ballot measures are available online at clarkvotes.org.
