In 2020, the King Conservation District (KCD) pioneered an electronic, smartphone-enabled voting system for its Board Supervisor election. It’s giving that system another shot this year, while King County Elections mulls over possibilities for further expansion.
The KCD operates as an environmental agency run by the state, spread across Seattle and 30 other cities. Its Board Supervisor election in 2021 features eight candidates, with voting open in King County between March 1 and March 23.
Eligible voters began receiving mailers last week, each with a QR code that directs people to the voting portal. Voters simply need to input their name and birthdate, select their preferred candidate, and then sign their ballot.
