Have you received yours yet? When did you get it, and what city or county are you registered?
I received mine yesterday, but H didn't. I'm assuming we'll get it in the mail today, but it's really weird that he didn't get it yesterday. We got our primary ballots on the same day, so I'm confused. We're in Seattle/King.
We got ours yesterday and frankly I had no idea that the ballots were MAILED to your home here! Where I've lived in the past (IN and WI) you go out to your voting district precinct, usually a library or school first thing in the morning and stand in line, then go into a booth and vote. Then you get your "I voted" sticker and go to work. The fact you mail the ballot in here blows my mind!

We're in King County and got our ballots the other day.
And yep, stretchad, we switched to an all mail-in ballot system a few years ago. There are also usually ballot drop off boxes around town (usually at libraries).

We used to do that. They went to full mailings a few years ago.
Everyone should receive their ballots by today. Everything went out on Wednesday. H received his on Thursday and I received mine Friday afternoon. I don't know why but...I was extremely excited this time filling out my ballot!
they switched right before/after? i turned 18...i was really disappointed that my first election was mail in and i've never gone to the voters booth before.
h received his on saturday, i haven't received mine yet (weird). in lynnwood.
