Everett Gets Ready To Vote In Historic City Election

For the first time ever voters in Everett, Washington will elect City Council Candidates based on where they live. The City has been split into five districts of approximately 22,000 people in each. In Everett, there are seven city council positions, all of which are non-partisan. Two of those are city-wide and are not on the ballot this year. Brenda Stonecipher and Judy Tuohy hold those two seats which will be on the ballot in 2023.

The other five seats are on the ballot for the November 2nd election. The local voter’s guides will be mailed by the Snohomish County Auditor’s office on Wednesday October 13th with ballots going into the mail October 14th. When you get your ballot you will not see all five city council candidates, just the two candidates for the District where you live. You can use this map to find out which District is yours (it takes a minute to load). Type your address in the search box in the upper left and when the map reloads, click the minus sign and zoom out to see your District.

For more information on voting, registration, lost ballots or other General Election questions visit the Snohomish County Auditor’s office online or call 425-388-3444.

MyEverettNews.com does not do candidate endorsements but back in September we invited candidates in opposed offices on the ballot in Everett to submit a 500 word statement on why they should be elected. We received submissions from some but not all of the candidates and are publishing those as provided by the candidates for your review. Due to the large number of candidates who did respond you may find it easiest to type an inquiry into the search box on the right side of the website to see information on a specific office or candidate.
