If you didn't sign up for text ballot status updates, make sure to check your ballot's status at VoteWA.gov!

1️⃣ Step one: Visit VoteWA.gov and enter your first and last name and date of birth.

2️⃣ Step two: Access your ballot tracker by clicking the "Your Ballot & Voting Materials" tab.

3️⃣ Determine your ballot status: "Received" means your ballot has been received, but the signature has not been reviewed. "Accepted" means the signature review is completed and your ballot has been accepted for tabulation.

4️⃣ If your ballot status shows it was rejected or challenged, your vote can still count! Your county election's office will contact you and tell you what you need to do to cure your ballot and make sure it is still counted.

See a comprehensive list of why ballots are challenged ➡️https://www.sos.wa.gov/ballot-status-codes

What happens to my ballot after I vote in Washington?

Ballots are sent off to be sorted at processing facilities, where photos of signatures are captured and checked against a voter's registration information.

If the signature doesn't match, voters are contacted and can "cure" their ballot. Once cured, ballots will be processed.

Once signatures are verified, ballots are removed from the return envelope (but not the security sleeve) and marked as "accepted", ensuring voters can only participate once.

Ballots are then reviewed for potential scanning issues (like torn corners) and then scanned and securely stored.

The scanners are NOT connected to the internet or any kind of network.

Ballots continue to be processed, cured, and tabulated until the election is certified!

I-001 Lacks transparency. It’s unclear language offers less protection for parent and student rights.
