Join three Washington Secretaries of State as they discuss the history and evolution of voting in our state—from the various systems in place to the complex and polarized climate we now operate in. Current Secretary of State Steve Hobbs joins former Secretaries of State Kim Wyman and Sam Reed for a panel discussion convened by the University of Washington’s College of Arts & Sciences and the Evans School of Public Policy & Governance. This timely forum is scheduled for Thursday, Nov. 7, shortly after the Nov. 5, 2024, General Election.
