Election Center

With the exception of a special election to fill a state Senate seat representing northeastern Washington state, the races in off-year election years like this one are for local offices such as city councils, school boards and rural fire districts. Municipal posts are considered non-partisan in Washington, though some candidates may be identified by party preference because of previous runs for state or federal office.
