Yesterday the team installed King County's 90th official ballot drop box in Parking Lot 1A at Bellevue College. 🥳 ...And we've got more on the way before the end of 2026!

Molly came back to help again last week when the official ballot drop box was installed in Skykomish.

Kent voters! There’s a new official ballot drop box outside Kent Kangley Safeway. When the box was installed yesterday, I learned we can switch which side the door is on, so trained ballot pickup teams can access the box safely and securely.

Molly helped us out with pouring the concrete slab in Skykomish. 🐾

Keep an eye out - we’re installing several new official ballot drop boxes this year. Today, the team installed new boxes at the downtown and Northgate locations of @spl.org 🎉🎉
