OLYMPIA — The Office of the Secretary of State is encouraging prospective candidates for federal, statewide, and multi-county legislative or judicial offices to file online during Candidate Filing Week May 11-15. The secure web portal will be open 24 hours a day beginning at 9 a.m. May 11 through 4 p.m. May 15.
Candidates are encouraged to submit their voters’ pamphlet statement and photo online once their filing is completed.
Citizens considering a run for state public office can download a candidate guide, read answers to frequently asked questions, and more on the Resources for Candidates page on the Secretary of State’s website. Additional questions about filing may be directed to the Office of the Secretary of State Elections Division by calling (360) 902-4180 or toll free (800) 448-4881.
