Don’t miss Oregon’s voter registration deadline

Portlanders have until Tues., Oct. 15 to register or make changes for this year’s general election.

Make sure you know where your nearest ballot drop box is if you’re not mailing it in.

This year’s general election on Tuesday, Nov. 5 will decide many important positions in Portland, like mayor and city council, with ranked choice voting. Positions for the rest of Oregon will also be elected.

But to ensure that each vote is counted, Portlanders must register by the Tuesday, Oct. 15 deadline at 11:59 p.m. That is also the cutoff to update any information, such as political party affiliation, or name and address changes.

To do so, simply visit the secretary of state’s website, where an online portal is also available in Spanish, Chinese, Vietnamese, Somali, and Russian. There is an in-person option too — fill out this form and take it to your county elections office.
