The Office of Secretary of State has released an educational video entitled "A Look at the Washington State Initiative Process." It gives an inside look at the journey of an initiative from conception to certification by our Elections Division.

The history of Washington’s initiative process, a detailed overview of the signature check procedures, and an explanation of the Legislature’s role are included. Commentary from Secretary of State Kim Wyman and Elections Division officials can be seen throughout the video.

Wyman and her staff are strong supporters of citizen activism and the initiative process and its ability to allow Washingtonians to have a role in the lawmaking process.

The video can be seen here on Youtube. Enjoy!
