Ballots for the primary election need to be returned to a ballot box no later than 8 p.m. Tuesday, August 5. According to the Whatcom County Auditor’s Office, 15,337 ballots have been received as of July 28.
Positions for Point Roberts Hospital District, Port of Bellingham and Whatcom County Council are up for election as well as Whatcom County Library System’s levy lid lift request.
Whatcom County has over 20 ballot drop boxes, one of which is located at the International Marketplace at 480 Tyee Drive. There is also a drop box located at Blaine Public Library.
The auditor’s office, at 311 Grand Avenue in Bellingham, can help people register to vote, update registration or vote until 8 p.m. Election Day.
Ballots postmarked by August 5 will be accepted, though the auditor’s office cautions people to check the last collection time for their mailbox.
