Your Vote is your Voice!
Have you turned in your ballot yet? Of course you have, you smart voter, you. But recent data shows that fewer than 15% of registered voters in LDs 5 and 41 have turned in their ballots, and fewer than 18% in LD 12. With so much at stake this year, we can’t leave this one to chance.
So, if you haven’t voted yet, here’s your reminder to drop those ballots off ASAP. Drop boxes are the fastest and the most secure way to get your vote in on time, plus they don’t require a stamp! All drop boxes are available 24 hours a day until 8 P.M. on Tuesday.
Here is a list of all King County drop box locations. Drop boxes close at 8pm sharp! If you must mail in your ballot, it needs to be postmarked no later than Tuesday to count!
Here are the resources we posted last week to help you make your choices.

Indivisible Matching Funds in August
If you have more treasure than time, this is the time to donate to Indivisible WA8! Your gift will be matched dollar-for-dollar through the month of August.
This month, Indivisible National is matching donations made to local chapters like Indivisible WA8. While we run on volunteer energy, some things do cost money like the space for our monthly community meetings, operating our website, and organizing other events, rallies, and protests.
Thank you in advance for your generous donation!
