Registered voters in Bellingham and Mount Baker School Districts are reminded to return their ballot by Election Day, February 13th.  Open drop boxes are listed on the insert enclosed with the ballot or on the Auditor’s website at www.whatcomcounty.us/auditor.  Ballots deposited in a drop box don’t need postage and are open until 8:00 pm on Election Day.

If returning your ballot through the mail, County Auditor Debbie Adelstein reminds voters that a 50-cent stamp is required and the ballot must have a postmark no later than February 13 to be counted.
