If you’re one of the many people who prefer to drop off their election ballot in a drop box instead of mailing it in, be aware that the nearest drop box in Ballard has moved.
The ballot drop box used to be located at the Neighborhood Service Center, but has moved partway up the block to a free-standing box outside the Ballard Library. Despite numerous signs next to the old location, our sister site MyBallard reports that plenty of voters appear to be confused about the new location.
The new ballot drop box (above) is open for voters to slip ballots in 24 hours a day from now until Election Day, Nov. 2, when the box will close at 8 p.m. Ballots put in the drop box do not require postage.
