Just checked ballot info. Washington state

All info was correct though tracking status was blank. It did tell me it was sent to me 10/9/20 and returned 10/15/20 and said it was recieved. When I was scrolling I accidently hit a grey bar that said "request replacement by mail." Nothing happened but now I am nervous that I messed up? Did I really mess up or am I fine?

So those dates you give don’t seem correct.

I read through everything and checked for anything that would be off and it looked like it was correct. I know several people who received theirs also. I will call someplace to find out.

I just called Secretary of Elections Division of Washington state. She said that some counties decided to send out early because of the mail system. Lewis county did and she said Thurston county did. The info about this is on page 3 of your pamphlet. You can also call your county election division to find out when you will you receive your ballot. The October 16 is their deadline to get it to you. Whew, I feel better now. I forgot to ask about hitting the grey area that said "request replacement by mail" but when I hit it nothing happened so I think I probably safe particularly if it said received. With everything going on with voting I just get nervous.

I think I’ll get get mine done immediately when I get it. I looked on the WA election page and they do have drop boxes scattered around. Maybe I’ll just take mine in rather than mailing it.
