Washington · November 3, 2026

Get Republicans to the ballot.

This state votes by mail. The election is decided by who actually drops the envelope. Check your registration, then turn out five more.

Nov 3

Until drop boxes close at 8 p.m. on Election Day. After that, it is over.

Oct 16

Ballots mailed to every registered voter. No request. If yours is missing, call the county.

Five people

The job after you vote. Name them, text them, make sure they drop it.

The roll

5,117,660 registered. No party on the form. 1,530,923 voted Trump in 2024. Only 786,445 showed up for the GOP primary.

~745,000 people voted Republican for president and skipped the primary. They are not on a list. They are neighbors.

The numbers

Illegal immigration

About 375,000 illegal immigrants in Washington — 4.7% of the state. No official count. Up from 250,000 in 2015.

Pew, 2023. CIS had 372,000 in late 2024. Nationally the number fell in 2025–26. There is still no new Washington-only 2026 figure.

The estimates

Turnout

How we actually win

Full playbook

1

You vote first

Look yourself up on VoteWA. Sign the envelope the same way you registered. Drop it in an official box — don't mail it the last week.

2

Five more ballots

Spouse, sister, neighbor, church friend, the guy who 'always votes.' Text the script. Ask if it is in the box.

3

Take it to a club

Everett lunch, Redmond pancakes, Spokane chapter. Clubs are how you multiply. Assign streets. Don't leave it as a Facebook post.

In a blue state

Conservative Washington is organized. Use it.

Republican women's clubs, Conservative Ladies, Moms for Liberty, Turning Point — they already meet. The missing piece is turnout. Bring the vote playbook to the next lunch.
