Curtain rises on campaign season as candidate filing begins
By Jerry Cornfield
EVERETT — An election season gets formally under way Monday when candidates begin filing for state and federal offices, judicial positions and a seat on the Snohomish County Council.
With COVID-19, this is going to be anything but a typical political cycle.
Campaigning is going to be virtual for awhile as rallies, canvassing and other forms of gathering are banned under the state’s stay-home order.
On Monday, candidates won’t be able to submit their paperwork in person, surrounded by supporters, because the Snohomish County elections office is closed to the public.
Rather, every person must file online. They can do so between 9 a.m. Monday and 4 p.m. Friday. Any filing fee must be paid using a debit or credit card.
