Voters' Pamphlet Page Layout Error

Washington County Voters, as you begin to look through your voters’ pamphlets, you may notice that the candidate statements for the three U.S. Senate candidates are not all grouped together. This is due to a page layout error at the printing vendor that resulted in the county insert being placed in the wrong location in the state voters’ pamphlet. The error did not impact any content within the voters’ pamphlet. You can find one of the candidates on pg. 30 before the insert and the other two on pg. 31 after the insert. The insert itself is approximately 68 pages long. An online version of the state voters’ pamphlet without the county insert is available at https://sos.oregon.gov/elections/Voters-Pamphlet. If you have any questions, contact either the Secretary of State’s Office or the Washington County Elections Division.
