Signed up to vote? Monday's your main deadline

With the U.S. Senate and many, many great primaries shaping up, you certainly don't want to be left out.

For qualified Washington residents, Monday is the standard deadline to get signed up by handy-dandy online registration or by traditional paper application, or to update your address or name change.

The primary is August 17, but most of us will be voting by mail. Ballots will be going in the mail by July 30. There is a late registration deadline for in-person signup at your county elections office if you're not already registered in Washington. That deadline is August 9. The deadlines to register in time to vote in the November 2 General Election are Oct. 4 for standard, and Oct. 25 for late deadline.
