Have You Used Your Seattle Democracy Vouchers?
In November 2015, Seattle voters passed a citizen-led initiative known as “Honest Elections Seattle” (I-122). I-122 enacted several campaign finance reforms that changed the way campaigns are typically financed for Seattle candidates.
One major reform allows the Seattle Ethics and Elections Commission (SEEC) to distribute “Democracy Vouchers” to eligible Seattle residents. Other campaign reforms include campaign contribution limits for lobbyists and contractors.
Democracy Vouchers were sent to Seattle residents several months ago. Maybe you have already used them to contribute to a candidate.
But if you haven’t you still have time to do so. You can send in the paper forms or use them online.
