King County Elections offers Vote Center at ShoWare Center in Kent

For people who need assistance or missed registration deadlines

King County Elections will have a Vote Center at the accesso ShoWare Center 625 W. James St., in Kent for people who need assistance or have missed the registration deadlines.

Vote centers are available to register new voters, update current voter records, obtain a voter registration card and to provide assistance to voters who need help completing their ballot. Trained staff and specialized equipment are available to help voters with disabilities cast a private, independent ballot.

The center will be open 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 31; 8:30 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Monday, Nov. 2; and 8:30 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Tuesday, Nov. 3, which is election day.

As part of the continued effort to stop the spread of COVID-19 in our community, King County Elections strongly recommends registering to vote and updating your registration online.

The vote centers are open for those who need assistance or have missed the deadlines. People who are able to utilize the online tools are asked to do so. Those who do come to a Vote Center in person will be required to wear a face covering that covers their nose and mouth.

King County Elections also set up vote centers in Renton, Federal Way, Bellevue and Seattle.

For more information, email elections@kingcounty.gov or call 206-296-VOTE (8683).
