Report from Oregon Secretary of State Bev Clarno, Oct. 23. 2020 General Election – The 2020 General Election is less than two weeks away! Voters’ Pamphlets and ballots have been mailed and we are beginning to get unofficial ballot return numbers updated daily. The unofficial data we have on ballot returns looks like we are well on our way to another record number of ballots cast for a General Election. This is great news that so many people are participating in our democratic process, with voting being safe, secure, and accessible, it is no wonder we are seeing high turnout numbers. Your ballot and vote is your opportunity to make your voice heard. We have a few helpful reminders for you: October 27th is the last day to mail in your ballot, after that please make sure to drop off your ballot at an official dropbox. Voters with disabilities can find detailed information about accessible voting options on our website or from local county election officials. Track your ballot status online through My Vote. Voters’ Pamphlets can be found online in multiple formats. Use one of our virtual “I Voted” stickers to share that you participated in the General Election. Contact your county election officials if you have questions. All ballots must be received in an official dropbox or at the county election office by 8 p.m. on November 3rd, postmarks do not count. As always, your trusted source of election information is OregonVotes.gov or your local county election officials.
