10/23/26 UPDATE
WA statewide turnout is at 15.03%. We are +121,125 ballots from the last midterm (+1.43% higher turnout)
For those wondering why I'm comparing this election to the 2022 midterm election, I added 2024 and 2025 turnout for today only. Next update is Monday.
@onlythegovtlies Thank you for that update. I bet it will be blamed on the changes at the post office.
The 336 must be UOCAVA voters, who already turned in their ballots. I'm sure we will see the return numbers pick up in a day or two. Please use a drop box! 🙏
@MyLightis_4_U You are welcome. I would be doing this anyway. Elections are of interest to me. Plus I already did most of the hard work and just update file with new data. Glad you appreciate it!
@remarkmarketing 'Tis the season! 😊
After this I plan to follow ballot curing numbers vs results change vs ballots on hand estimates, etc.
Then I will verify it all later. 😉
Counties listed with their name in RED reported a 0 increase in ballots over yesterday. Mostly small counties or they don't work Fridays, is my best guess.
The National Guard has been "helping" to protect our elections since 2018, including having people at the elections office and voting centers. At least they will be put to better use at a drop box. I am in no way alarmed by the National Guard playing a role in this election too.
@tesla_hillbilly Its all just noise. I am currently laser focused and have no room for noise. Trying to get others on the same page, but its always a challenge.

This article claims it has been since 2016. I wouldn't know because I moved back here in 2017
