What authority dictates the conservation district election process? What does it require districts to do when conducting an election?
The Revised Code of Washington (RCW 89.08) defines the conservation district election process rather than standard election law under title 29. RCW directs that the election be held in the first quarter of the year, have a minimum of one polling place that must be held open for a minimum four hours, must give timely and adequate notice to constituents of the district, and follow standard procedures for qualifying voters.
