Know before you vote: PDN’s North Olympic Peninsula Voter Guide available online and in print

THE NORTH OLYMPIC Peninsula Voter Guide, produced as a public service by the Peninsula Daily News, is available online and in print across Clallam and Jefferson counties.

The guide features all candidates in the Nov. 3 general election races in Clallam and Jefferson counties, including biographical profiles and the candidates’ responses to questions on issues related to contested offices.

Included are features on local and statewide ballot measures and proposed Clallam County charter amendments.

To view the guide online, visit http://tinyurl.com/PDNelectionguide or scroll to the bottom of www.peninsuladailynews.com where the guide can be found with our other special publications.

If you wish to have a print version of the voter guide, it’s free for the taking at the PDN office in Port Angeles at 305 W. First St., the Sequim Gazette office at 147-B W. Washington St. and the Forks Forum at 490 S. Forks Ave., as well as at numerous public contact points in Clallam and Jefferson counties — including libraries, courthouses and senior centers — while supplies last.

Auditors’ offices in Clallam and Jefferson counties have mailed 46,917 ballots to Clallam County registered voters and 22,554 ballots to Jefferson County registered voters — both not including military ballots.

To be valid, ballots must be postmarked by Nov. 3 or returned to the county auditor’s office by 8 p.m. Nov. 3.
