Monday is voter registration deadline

Register to vote today, or wait in a really long line on Monday.

That’s the message from Spokane County Auditor Vicky Dalton for those who want to vote in the November election but still aren’t registered.

Monday is the deadline to register, but Dalton warns that in 2008 – the last presidential election year – the county elections office was slammed on the deadline date.

Today the elections office is open from 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. Dalton said that starting at 4 p.m. Monday, the line will not be allowed to grow.

Those planning to register need to bring a state-issued ID or provide the last four digits of their Social Security Number.
