King County Elections will set up a Vote Center at Kent City Hall, 220 Fourth Ave. S., for three days to provide voters with in-person assistance during the general election.<\/p>\n
The center will be open from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 30; 8:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Monday, Nov. 1; and 8:30 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Tuesday, Nov. 2, aka Election Day, according to a King County Elections media release.<\/p>\n
Kent City Hall is one of five locations spread throughout the county where voters can go to register to vote, get a replacement ballot, or use an assistive voting device to cast a private, secure ballot. The other locations are Lumen Field Event Center in Seattle, Bellevue College, Kenmore City Hall, Federal Way Performing Arts Center and King County Elections HQ in Renton.<\/p>\n
“Vote Centers are key to providing inclusive elections and ensuring that voters can register to vote through Election Day,” said Julie Wise, King County director of elections.<\/p>\n
Voters who need to come in-person are encouraged to visit one of the locations on Saturday as lines are expected on Monday and Election Day.<\/p>\n
Registered voters received ballots in the mail and can return them by mail or at ballot drop boxes throughout the <\/a>county<\/a>. Kent has drop boxes at the Maleng Regional Justice Center, 401 Fourth Ave. N.; the Kent YMCA, 10828 SE 248th St.; and the Panther Lake Library, 20500 108th Ave. SE.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Will be open Oct. 30, Nov. 1 and Nov. 2 to assist voters <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":212,"featured_media":52569,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"yst_prominent_words":[],"class_list":["post-52568","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kentreporter.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/52568"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kentreporter.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kentreporter.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kentreporter.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/212"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kentreporter.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=52568"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.kentreporter.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/52568\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kentreporter.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/52569"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kentreporter.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=52568"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kentreporter.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=52568"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kentreporter.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=52568"},{"taxonomy":"yst_prominent_words","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kentreporter.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/yst_prominent_words?post=52568"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
