Last Day to Mail Ballots is Thursday

Thursday, Jan. 18 is the last day for voters to safely mail in their ballots for the Special Election on Tuesday, Jan. 23.

Multnomah County Elections encourages voters to return ballots promptly due to the possibility of inclement winter weather. Ballot envelopes must be signed and ballots received by the elections office no later than 8:00 p.m. Postmark dates do not count in Oregon.

All registered voters should have received their ballots, and voters who have not received ballots or need replacement ballots should contact the elections office.

The Order Ahead Replacement Ballot Service allows voters to go online request a replacement ballot and have it ready at Will Call. Voters can then pick up replacement ballots at either the Multnomah County Duniway-Lovejoy Elections Building or the Voting Center Express inside the Multnomah County East Building at 600 NE 8th Street, Gresham, 97030.  Voters can also call Multnomah County Elections at 503-988-3720 or visit the SE Portland or Gresham location in person to get assistance or a replacement ballot.

Multnomah County Elections provides an interpreter, free of charge, to anyone who needs help voting in a language other than English.

Additional voting and elections information in nine languages is online at multco.us/education-and-outreach.
