General Election November 3

2020 2020

Official Publication Ballots mailed to voters by October 16 (800) 448-4881 | sos.wa.gov 2 A message from Assistant Secretary of State Mark Neary

On behalf of the Office of the Secretary of State, I am pleased to present the 2020 General Election Voters’ Pamphlet. We offer this comprehensive guide as a reference to help you find information on the candidates and statewide measures that appear on your ballot.

This general election gives you the opportunity to have a say in our government at the local, state, and national levels, and to choose who will serve as our nation’s next president. In order to have your voice heard, you must be registered to vote. Voter registration forms that are mailed or completed online must be received by October 26, and we encourage you to check your registration information today at VoteWA.gov. If you are reading this message after October 26 and you are not registered, have moved since the last time you voted, or did not receive a ballot, you can go to your local elections office or voting center during regular business hours through 8 p.m. on Election Day to register to vote and receive a ballot.

Once you have completed your ballot, you can send it via U.S. mail — no postage needed — but remember, all ballots must be postmarked by November 3. A late postmark could disqualify your ballot. The USPS recommends that you mail a week before Election Day. After that, we recommend using an official ballot drop box. Drop boxes are open until 8 p.m. on November 3.

We are committed to ensuring a safe and secure election for all Washingtonians, especially during this challenging time. Returning your ballot through the mail or at one of nearly 500 ballot drop boxes statewide can help you maintain proper social distancing and stay healthy. To locate a ballot drop box, visit VoteWA.gov. For more information about COVID-19, visit coronavirus.wa.gov.

Sincerely,

Mark Neary Assistant Secretary of State

The Secretary of State is not responsible for the content of statements or arguments (WAC 434-381-180). 24 Engrossed Senate Joint Resolution No. 8212 Explanatory Statement Fiscal Impact Statement Written by the Office of the Attorney General

The Constitutional Provision as it Presently Not required by law Exists The Washington Constitution generally prohibits investing public money in the stock of private companies. This means that state and local governments are limited to investing public funds in fixed-income securities, such as government and corporate bonds and certificates of deposit. The Constitution currently exempts several funds from this restriction. This exemption applies to any public pension or retirement fund, the industrial insurance trust fund, and money held in trust for the benefit of people with developmental disabilities. The exemption allows state and local governments to invest money held in those funds as authorized by law, including by investing in stock as authorized by the Legislature. In 2019, the Legislature enacted a law providing for long-term care insurance. Under that law, employees will pay premiums for state-sponsored long-term care benefits through a payroll deduction, beginning January 1, 2022. Those premiums will be deposited into a new Long-Term Services and Supports Trust Account (Trust Account). Under current law, money held in the Trust Account could not be invested in stocks. The Effect of the Proposed Amendment if Approved This Amendment would add the Trust Account to the list of funds that are exempt from the prohibition against investing public money in private stocks. This would allow money in the Trust Account to be invested in stock if the Legislature authorizes that form of investment. Voter tip:

I work every day to maintain the independence and integrity of our courts, and I trust the people of Washington to elect judges who safeguard access to justice and respect the law. As the only current Justice from Eastern Washington, I bring important perspectives to the Court. As a former constitutional law professor, I respect legal traditions. As a parent and former school board chair, I understand how court decisions impact Washington families. My priorities this year include addressing the urgent and critical needs of the justice system during the pandemic: new protocols for remote court hearings, safe courthouse operations, and protection of public safety and the rights of the accused and incarcerated. I have always enjoyed broad, nonpartisan support, and I ask for your vote to continue serving you and upholding the rule of law.
