Dear Multnomah County Voter:
The March 8, 2005 Special Election is here, and there
are a few things you should know:
- Voted ballots MUST be received at our office or drop
site location by 8:00 PM, TUESDAY, MARCH 8, 2005 to
be counted.
- This Voters’ Pamphlet is on our website. Our
website also includes helpful information such as
links to other election and media sites: www.mcelections.org
- At 8:00 PM on election night we will have election
results posted on our website and we will update that
site throughout the evening.
- If a ballot was delivered to your residence for
someone who should no longer be receiving a ballot
at your address, please write “RETURN”
on the envelope and place it back in your mailbox.
If a ballot was sent to someone who is deceased, please
write “DECEASED” on the envelope and place
it back in your mailbox.
- If you make a mistake or change your mind while
marking your ballot, you may request a replacement
ballot from the Elections Office. If there is not
enough time before the election to receive AND return
a replacement ballot, you may make your changes on
the ballot but it is critical that you make your choice
obvious because election workers will inspect each
ballot to make sure voter intent is understood and
the ballot is counted correctly.
- If you lose your ballot, accidentally destroy it,
or did not receive a ballot and you are a registered
voter,
please let us know immediately so we may issue a replacement
ballot in time for you to vote.
