The Kitsap County Auditor’s Office is seeking individuals to serve on committees to draft voters’ guide arguments for the April 28 special election. This is an opportunity to provide voters with information about measures affecting their community.

Each ballot measure appearing in the April 28 Special Election online voters’ guide includes the official ballot title, explanatory statement, arguments “for” and “against” the measure, and rebuttals.

The Auditor’s Office is seeking individuals to serve on committees to draft arguments against the South Kitsap Fire and Rescue renewal of emergency medical services levy.

Committee members do not have to be residents of the district in order to draft arguments. Interested parties should contact the Elections Division by 4:30 p.m., March 16. Email auditor@co.kitsap.wa.us, or call 360-337-7128 if interested.

“Our office is committed to ensuring voters have all of the information they need to make informed decision,” said Kitsap County Elections Manager Kyle Joyce. “The online voters’ guide is one of the many resources available to them.”

The Elections Division also provides an online accessible ballot, and accessible voting equipment available at the Elections Division office. Postage-free ballot drop boxes are also available in locations throughout the county.
