Call for Members to Form Con Committees for April 2024 Ballot Measures

When a jurisdiction places a measure on the ballot, members of the public are appointed to pro or con committees. These committees prepare statements either in favor of or in opposition to the ballot measure. These statements are published in the local voters’ pamphlet, and help voters make informed decisions.

The following measures have appointed pro committees, but no one has come forward yet to join a con committee:

  • City of Enumclaw, Proposition No. 1
  • East Pierce Fire & Rescue, Proposition No. 1

Members of the con committee will be responsible for:

  • Submitting a con statement, following all guidelines, to King County Elections by 4:30 p.m. on Tuesday, February 27.
  • Submitting a rebuttal statement, following all guidelines, to King County Elections by 4:30 p.m. on Thursday, February 29.

If you want to be a member of the con committee for any of these propositions, please email election.services@kingcounty.gov by 4:30 p.m. on Monday, February 26.
