Beginning at 9 am Wednesday, Aug. 6, elections officials will perform an audit of approximately 600 ballots randomly selected as part of a manual comparison against machine results.  

For this comparison, approximately 600 ballots from the City of Vancouver, Council Position No. 1 race will be counted by hand, to confirm that the ballot tabulation equipment tabulated votes properly. The selected ballots will be counted in the total returns on Election Day.

Citizens can register or update their registration until 8 pm on election day, Aug. 5, and receive a ballot for this primary and special election, but must do so in person at the Elections Office.

If a voter has not received their ballot, they should contact the Elections Office at 564.397.2345 or elections@clark.wa.gov.

A voter may download a replacement ballot at VoteWA.gov. Sign in using your name and date of birth. Click “Download Replacement Ballot Packet.” The voter must print the declaration sheet and ballot and return it by following the instructions.

The Elections Office is open Monday through Friday, 8 am to 4 pm, and on Election Day, Aug. 5, from 7 am to 8 pm.
