Below are the voter registration deadlines for the November 5 General Election in Thurston County.

In Washington State, voters can register to vote or update their registration information in-person up to 8:00 p.m. on Election Day, thanks to Same Day Registration. This system was introduced under SSB 6021, which was passed in 2018 and took effect in June 2019. It allows voters to register or update their address at a voting center or county elections office even on Election Day and receive a ballot the same day. This change gives voters more time and flexibility to ensure their information is up-to-date, making it easier to participate in Primary, Special, or General Elections.

The Thurston County Auditor's Office will hold a Passport Fair on Saturday, October 19, 2024, from 9:00 am to 12:00 pm at the Thurston County Atrium Building. As the only provider of full-time passport services in the county, the Auditor's Office is dedicated to ensuring accessible passport services for community members.
