Monday is last day to register online to vote in Washington primary

Monday is the last day Washingtonians can register to vote online or by mail for the August primary election.

If voters need to change their address, receive a replacement ballot, register to vote after Monday, they will need to do so at a local voting center or county elections office.

However, this is the first election that voters will be able to register in-person up until ballot boxes close Tuesday, August 6 at 8 p.m. Typically Washingtonians have had to register to vote at least a week before election day.

The change stems from a package of election bills that the Legislature passed last session. The new laws include pre-paid postage on all ballot envelopes and allowing 16- and 17-year-olds to get their names on a pre-registration voter list, which will automatically turn into a voter registration when they turn 18 years old.

All three measures aim to boost voter turnout.
