The Washington state legislature adjourned on Sunday, April 22. No election bills of interest passed. There were many bills to limit the initiative process by outlawing paying on a per signature basis, but none of them passed. The National Popular Vote Plan (SB 5628) had passed in the Senate Government Operations Committee, but had gone no further. The Secretary of State’s bill to alter minor party procedures, HB 1534, also failed to pass. It would have moderately improved ballot access.
