Lawmaker pushes for election night ballot counts in Washington
Rep. Kevin Van De Wege proposes counting ballots until midnight on election night to finish results sooner. He notes mail ballots postmarked by Election Day delay tallies, with Pierce County often leading to early partial counts before updates. The bill, by the Sequim Democrat, awaits a House hearing before Government Operations and Elections Committee.
