Washington State will have two initiatives on the ballot this November, thanks to right wing billionaire Brian Heywood. One would repeal the school Safety Act, and the other bans transgender girls from afterschool sports by requiring a special medical certification for all girls who want to play sports.

@cap_ybarra @cremevax he’s carrying the torch that Eyman lit. Hopefully we’ll continue to do better at defeating them

@cremevax I sure hope that we'll still be able to vote by mail. I can't even imagine waiting on line in a polling place to vote. But I swear to God, I would camp out for a week on the doorstep of a polling place to vote this year if I had to.
And this reminds me that no matter what I decide to do this winter, I'm not doing it until after I've voted.

@mlanger it seems pretty unlikely that the entire vote by mail system in the state will get invalidated. Tightened ballot return time cutoffs due to this ongoing court case, I’m not so sure about.
I’m leery about returning my ballot by USPS, though. I’ll use the elections-run drop boxes instead, and get processing tracking texts to make sure it gets counted.
Regardless of what happens, I would crawl on my hands and knees through a field of broken glass to vote this year.

@cremevax I always bring my ballot to the drop box in town. I won’t mail it. And I do use that tracking feature. I don’t leave anything up to chance. This year, I’ll likely photocopy it before I send it, too.
