(1) The notice of election shall conform to the requirements for election notices provided by this chapter for the election being held, and shall specify that any qualified district elector may vote by absentee ballot, and that a ballot and form of certificate of qualifications will be furnished to him or her on written request being made of the district's secretary. The requisite ballot and a form of certificate of qualifications shall be furnished by the district's secretary to any person who prior to the date of election makes written request therefor, stating that he or she is a qualified district elector. Such ballot and form may be furnished also to qualified district electors in any way deemed to be convenient without regard to requests having been made therefor.
(2) The board of directors may by adoption of a resolution choose to conduct an election using only mail-in ballots in lieu of polling places and absentee ballots. The district shall provide ballots to qualified electors derived from its assessment roll, toll and charge roll, or other district records and may also use the county assessor's or other public records to assist in determining qualified electors. Ballots will be in the same format as provided in RCW 87.03.033. Persons or entities who have not received a ballot and believe they are qualified electors may provide documents demonstrating they are qualified electors at the district main office by the close of business on the day before the election and receive a ballot if qualified to vote in the election.
