Change of Address

Are you a registered voter in Oregon who has moved, but not changed your address with the county elections office? Because ballots are targeted by the precinct you live in, you must notify the elections office anytime that you move. Even if you have your e-mail forwarded, it will not forward to you -- it's illegal for it to do so. While the registration deadline has passed, it's not too late for you to change your address with the elections office. Current registered voters have until 8 p.m. on Election Day to update their information. To do so, you'll need to fill out a voter registration form, including the bottom portion regarding change of address.

Oppose Measure 41, because Sizemore's Tax Scam would bankrupt our state.
