SPOKANE, Wash. — Have you ever wondered if your neighbors were more conservative or more liberal than your city overall? In Spokane County, it’s easy to find out.
The first thing you’ll want to do is find your precinct because it’s the smallest region for which voting data is publicly available.
If you don’t already know your precinct (and you’d certainly be forgiven if you don’t), the Spokane County parcel search is a great way to find it. Head to this page, type in your address and scroll to “elections.”
This page gives you a handful of useful details when it comes to elections, including what state legislative district you live in and what municipal jurisdiction you fall under (Spokane, Cheney, Spokane County, etc.).
Once you’ve found your precinct number, you can find what exactly I mean by your “neighbors” on this map. Just watch out, precinct boundaries periodically change.
If you want a better look at your precinct boundaries, Spokane County provides detailed maps based on legislative district (remember — you can find your legislative district on the SCOUT viewer).

Once you find your precinct, head over the Spokane County results by precinct page.
Now you can search for the issues and candidates you care about, and you can find how your precinct voted.
I like to look out for how my precinct might be more or less likely to vote liberal or conservative depending on the issues (for example: Did a lot of my neighbors vote for Donald Trump for president, but Bob Ferguson for governor? Or Kamala Harris for president but Dave Reichert for governor?)
Additionally, this page lets you look back to previous election cycles to see how your precinct has changed over the years. Again, precinct boundaries can change slightly over time, so it’s not a perfect comparison.
As of publishing, the Spokane County Elections Office hasn’t finished reporting the 2024 General Election results, and the county won’t certify its county until Nov. 26. Those results won’t be official until the Washington State Secretary of State certifies them on Dec. 5.
