VOTING BASICS

WHAT TO DO WHEN...

…Your ballot doesn't arrive in the mail within 14 days of an election
Contact your county elections office and ask for another ballot.

…You spoil or lose your ballot
Contact your county elections office and ask for another ballot.

…You misplaced your voter registration card
Contact your county elections office to request another card. It is not necessary to have a voter registration card in order to vote. However, you should verify your registration by contacting your county elections office.

…You or someone you know needs assistance in voting
If you or someone you know are unable to vote a ballot for any reason, you can get assistance or request to receive information in an alternative format by contacting 1-866-ORE-VOTES or contacting your county elections office. To learn more about assisting voters, read How to Assist Voters with Disabilities (pdf) published by Oregon's Secretary of State. In some cases, members of local Leagues may be able to assist you in voting your ballot. Contact the nearest local League to find out if this option is available to you.

…You move, change your name, or wish to change your party affiliation
It is necessary to reregister to vote. Contact your county elections office.
