King County Official Local Voters' Pamphlet August 6, 2013 Primary and Special Election King County Official Local Voters’ Pamphlet For more information call 206-296-VOTE (8683) or visit www.kingcounty.gov/elections A letter from the Director, Sherril Huff Dear King County Voter: Another graduation season just passed bringing the reminder of how fast change happens. We’ve been voting by mail for four years in King County and each has been one of signifi cant change. King County voters have done a great job adjusting to change and you may appreciate knowing that your elections department has as well. With over 1.17 million voters spread out over more than 2,000 voting districts, the challenge to implement change, while protecting the integrity of each vote has been, at times, a monumental endeavor. In our quest to make elections processes more effi cient and reduce costs, the world of technology has certainly provided a range of remarkable options. However, it’s been our impatient, questioning and innovative work force that has been the strong, beating heart of the most effective, forward-thinking changes. Thanks to them, we have achieved greater effi ciency, resolved problems and improved our ability to meet expectations of King County voters. We are working to provide outstanding voter experiences, employing means that offer more choices each year. Multi-channel delivery, empowerment, simplifi ed and streamlined options, and relevancy-- this is a vocabulary that is associated today with service. We have also benefi tted from the help of many strategic partnerships, including vendors, other public agencies, and organizations. We are working together to make sure more citizens are engaged in voting with better understanding of the voting process. Creative use of technology has streamlined ballot processing and improved customer service delivery in a variety of ways. We improved connections with voters through social media, webcams and web-based information and services. Sophisticated solutions have been designed by staff with the support of our technical team to update and improve candidate fi ling processes. Additionally, with support from the county’s technical services staff, Elections staff developed and launched a mobile-optimized website with easy access to the information voters wanted most. An external mapping application is another new service for voters. Efforts are currently underway for more effi cient delivery and management of overseas and military ballots. The use of tablet computers and strategically designed line management techniques served to assure no voter waited in line longer than 30 minutes in King County last November and wait time to register to vote on our busiest day was reduced by 50 percent The application of Lean business processes, along with Agile Workforce programs and technology improvements have combined to increase ballot processing capacity and reduce temporary staffi ng by nearly 50 percent. In addition we are aggressively pursuing cross training of staff to broaden competency and provide the opportunity for employee growth and advancement. There are many examples in place and in development that represent the creative work of election staff and our valued partners to enhance service to voters using technology. It is exciting and I believe expected. The stunning path of technology advancement in a single year signals a continuing wave of remarkable developments in election administration. We will be ready and waiting. While technology has contributed to our continued success, we’ve also made improvements associated with the “tried and true” services of the past. For example, we have increased the number of ballot drop-off locations to even out distribution and provide greater convenience across the county. My thanks to all of you who have helped make our elections among the most successful in the country. I again extend the invitation to visit our offi ce and see the processes and people who are serving the voters of King County. 3 Content Reading the local Table of contents General Information voters’ pamphlet Letter from the director 2 Content 3 Why are there measures and candidates in Contact information 4 the local voters’ pamphlet that are not on Register to vote 5 my ballot?

You can’t think that if it is something that Walla Walla wants, therefore we should have it. That doesn’t mean that I didn’t think there were things we deserved, but your fi rst duty is to the entire state, and then to your district. I think that is important.

Rather like the fi rst woman senator, Reba Hurn, Hayner let her qualifi cations and abilities speak for themselves. In the somewhat gentrifi ed Senate where it is easy to succumb to the fl attery of staff and lobbyists, and where a few of her fellow legislators adopted morals of convenience, Hayner kept her small-town values and her sense of proportion.

  • Advanced Placement (AP) OSPI Program Brief Program Description: This Program Allows Students to Take Rigorous College-Level Courses While Still in High School
    Advanced Placement (AP) OSPI Program Brief Program description: This program allows students to take rigorous college-level courses while still in high school. Students may earn college credit and/or advanced placement into upper-level college courses by taking AP exams. Many colleges and universities recognize AP courses when making admissions decisions. Advanced Placement is a rigorous academic program built on the commitment, passion, and hard work of students and educators from secondary schools and higher education. With 34 courses in a wide variety of subject areas, AP provides willing and academically-prepared high school students with the opportunity to study and learn at the college level. Through AP courses, certified AP teachers help students develop and apply the skills, abilities, and content knowledge they will need later in college/university. Each AP course is modeled upon a comparable college/university course, and college and university faculty play a vital role in ensuring that AP courses align with college/university-level standards. For example, through the AP Course Audit, AP teachers submit their syllabi for review and approval by college/university faculty. Only courses using syllabi that meet or exceed the college/university-level curricular and resource requirements for each AP course are authorized to carry the AP label. Advanced Placement courses culminate in a suite of college/university-level assessments developed and scored by college and university faculty members, as well as experienced AP teachers. AP exams are an essential part of the AP experience, enabling students to demonstrate their mastery of college-level course work. Strong performance on AP exams is rewarded by colleges and universities worldwide.

The guests were transported from Ivar's Salmon House Restaurant on north Lake Union to the Hungry Turtle Restaurant on Fairview Avenue where the walking tour began. The narrated cruise on the Islander included refreshments of wine, Perrier• water and cheese. The tour's success was due to all the participants who gave their time to the project. A special thanks goes to the home owners who donated the use of their houseboats. The cooperation of the Seattle Times and moorage owners Mark Freeman, Gordon Jef­ frey, Frank Granat, Jim Wandesford, Charles Flanagan, and Flo Villa, helped Sandy Oellien and her cruise committee. The tour was so popular that all tickets sold out in advance. The visitor response was especially good. The guests were cordial and friendly and most thanked the houseboat owners for opening their homes to the tour. he Floating Homes office received a number of calls after the tour expressing gratitude and a desire to come again . The seven houseboats on the tour were of all different ages and styles. The northernmost houseboat was the elegant home of Otto and Garnet Drager.
