Democracy Voucher Program candidates are starting to reach their fundraising limits.

But there’s still time for Seattle residents to give their vouchers to their preferred candidates running for mayor, city council, and city attorney in Seattle.

What are Democracy Vouchers?

Democracy Vouchers are four $25 certificates you can use to donate to participating candidates to help support their campaign for the 2021 General Election.

You should use your Democracy Vouchers as soon as you know who you want to support. Participating candidates can only receive a limited number of vouchers.

I am a lawful permanent resident. Can I apply for the Democracy Voucher Program?
