The Washington legislature adjourned on April 23. The only bill that passed that affects ballot access is SB 5182. It moves the declaration of candidacy deadline for non-presidential primary candidates from late May to the Friday after the first Monday in May. Assuming the Governor signs the bill, the 2024 deadline for candidates to file in the non-presidential primary will be May 10.

Bills to make voting mandatory, and to use ranked choice voting in the presidential primary, and to remove party labels from the ballot for all office except president, did not pass.
