Procrastinators note: 8 p.m. is ballot deadline
When that ballot came in the mail several weeks ago, some of you may have thought: "Oh, plenty of time."
And when those political commercials started coming hot and heavy during the Olympic games' opening ceremony, you may have looked toward the counter where that ballot sat and thought: "Oh, plenty of time."
And when the campaigns started calling asking you to mark your ballot for this candidate or the other, you may have hung up the phone thinking: "Oh, plenty of time."
Well, guess what? You are almost out of time.
8 p.m. today is the deadline for getting those ballots in. They must be deposited in a drop box, or mailed with today's postmark. To make sure it's postmarked, it might be best to take it to a Post Office. For a list of public libraries and other locations for Spokane County drop boxes, check inside the blog.
Oh, and if you forgot where you put the ballot, or threw it out with the junk mail, or maybe the dog ate it, and now you need another one, you can get that at a voter service center. Here's a list of voter service centers for Spokane County.
