All candidates were invited to record a statement. Each statement is up to two minutes long and unedited. This Video Voters' Guide includes statements from candidates running for King County Executive; King Council Council positions 5 and 7; City of Seattle Mayor; City of Seattle City Attorney; Seattle City Council district 2 and positions 8 and 9; Seattle School District No. 1, Director District No. 4 and Director District No. 5; and statements for and against King County Proposition 1 and City of Seattle Proposition 1.

This is an all-mail election. Instead of going to a polling place, ballots will be sent to all registered voters. You may return your ballot by mail or return it to one of the ballot drop box locations around King County by August 5.

King County residents can locate their congressional, legislative, county council, and city council voting districts using the "Find My Districts" tool on the King County Elections website.

The Video Voters' Guide is a collaboration of the Seattle Ethics and Elections Commission, Seattle Channel, and King County TV. For more information about this election, visit King County Elections.
