In-person filing June 4-8 for candidates for Nov. election
posted 05/24/2007
The time for candidate filing for the general election has been changed by the Washington State Legislature from the last week in July to the first week in June. Elections Supervisor Dan Gillespie sent out a list of the offices on the ballot this year. They are commissioners and directors of local public service districts, the Town of Friday Harbor and local school districts.
In order to file for office, a prospective candidate must be a registered voter in San Juan County and be a resident of the district represented.
In-person filing will be conducted from 8:00 a.m. Monday, June 4, 2007 to 4:30 p.m. Friday, June 8 at the San Juan County Elections Office on Second Street in Friday Harbor. Filings will be accepted by mail from Friday, May 18 through Friday June 8.
All filings must be in the Elections Office by 4:30 p.m., Friday, June 8.
If more than two persons file for any one of these offices, a Primary will be held for that office on Tuesday, August 21, 2007. The names of the two persons receiving the most votes for that position will be placed on the General Election ballot.
A candidate filing packet may be requested at:
San Juan County Elections Department
PO Box 638
Friday Harbor WA 98250
