Absentee ballots for the Nov. 6 election must be postmarked by or before Nov. 6. Voters can also return their voted absentee ballot to any polling place between 7 a.m. and 8 p.m. on Election Day.

Voters who do not receive their absentee ballot in the mail by Friday, Oct. 26, should call 206-296-VOTE.

_To keep postage costs at cents, voters need to remove the stub from the top of their ballot before mailing it.
