Voters’ pamphlets for the Aug. 4 primary election are in the mail.
Snohomish County elections officials sent the pamphlets Wednesday by bulk mail to all residential addresses in the county. While general-election material is divided among several editions for different parts of the county, the county prints only one countywide pamphlet for the primary.
The county will send ballots to all registered voters by first-class mail Thursday.
County Elections Manager Garth Fell said Wednesday that he expects most voters to get ballots or pamphlets by July 21. He said that voters who don’t get ballots by then should call the county auditor’s office.
Voters can return completed ballots at ballot drop boxes in Edmonds, Lynnwood or any of nine other sites around the county, or they can mail them so the ballots get postmarked on or before Aug. 4.
The primary will narrow the field for Snohomish County executive, county council member for District 3, a position on the Edmonds School District board and two positions on the Lynnwood City Council.
