Observing elections activities
Watch us process the election online
Observers from both political parties and non-partisan observers through the King County League of Women Voters are requested to be on site for every election as added assurance of oversight and accountability. If you would like to be an observer, please contact the political party with which you affiliate or the King County League of Women Voters.
Elections are also monitored and formally reviewed periodically by the Secretary of State’s office.
Activities take place at King County Elections headquarters.
