The move marks another small victory for concept of online voting. Earlier this month, Arizona Democrats became the first to hold a valid online election for their state presidential primary.

Republicans in King County will vote electronically April 8 for state delegates. And all Republican state delegates will vote electronically June 16 for national delegates. Delegates will use computers available at the convention to cast votes.

Mike Majestic, co-founder of iPolitics.com, which will host the voting, said online voting will make reporting the results easier.
