  • Kitsap County Auditor's Office
    Kitsap County Auditor’s Office Kitsap County Auditor – Elections Division 2020 Voter Access Plan Plan Overview Every voter deserves the opportunity to vote independently and in private. The Kitsap County Auditor’s Office – Elections Division is committed to making sure that is the case for voters with disabilities. This commitment includes providing and supporting effective technology and offering locations to make independent voting easy. To help accomplish this, the Elections Division hosts an annual meeting with members of the Kitsap County Voter Access Advisory Committee to review and revise the county’s voter access plan and interacts regularly with members of the committee to provide updates and receive input on committee objectives. While this committee and this plan are designed to meet the requirements of Washington State law found in RCW 29A.04.223, improving voter access for all voters helps fulfill the Auditor’s Office mission of “Serving the people of Kitsap County by providing essential services in a manner that ensures quality, accountability and accessibility.” Accessible Voting Program 2019 Accomplishments Every county in Washington spent ample focus in 2019 in implementing a new voter registration and election management system, VoteWA. It was also the first year implementing same-day registration. Those changes were designed to benefit all voters. Kitsap County did, however, make a few changes that will benefit voters with disabilities specifically. • We successfully entered into a contract to open a Vote Center in Bremerton. • The Elections Division purchased new Accessible Voting Units to improve the experience for voters using them. • The mobile voting schedule was updated to better address ongoing demand and recommendations made by the Accessible Voting Committee.
