OLYMPIA, Wash. (AP) — Republican Secretary of State Kim Wyman has certified the final results of Washington state’s election, two days ahead of the deadline.
Our state saw its second-highest turnout percentage, with over 84% of the state’s nearly 5 million voters casting a ballot.
Wyman said the increase in voter numbers is due in part to the population increase in the state over the years, as well as voter access laws, including same-day registration.
