What is Oregon’s voter registration deadline?
According to the Oregon legislature, you must submit your voter registration form to an election office 21 days before Election Day. If you register by mail or online, you must do so 21 days before the upcoming election date.
How do I get my mail-in ballot?
Oregon law dictates that all voting is done by mail. After you register to vote, election officials mail your ballot to the address you provided on your voter registration form.
Voters can drop their ballots at drop boxes or mail them to the local county election office. All ballots must be postmarked by 8:00 p.m. on election day.
Military and overseas voters can vote via Oregon’s online ballot-marking tool.
Are there special accommodations for disabled voters?
If you need assistance voting, someone from the County Voter Assistance Team, the Facility Voter Assistance Team, or someone you choose can help you, as long as they follow the legal guidelines.
A person cannot help you vote if they are:
- Your employer
- An agent of your employer
- A union officer
- An agent of a union
You can contact the local election official’s office to confirm available accommodations for voters with disabilities.
What should I do if I see something illegal at the polls?
If you see or experience something illegal while registering to vote, election officials immediately. This includes voter fraud, voter intimidation, or lack of accessibility.
The state of Oregon cares about the integrity of its elections. They want to know if citizens observe anything that can threaten that integrity.
