Ballots for Oregon's May 19 primary election will start arriving in mailboxes on April 29th. This means underÂé¶¹Ö±²¥ students will receive ballots before the exam period starts but they won't be due back until after classes are out for the summer. It is vital that you carefully consider where you want your ballot mailed and how you plan to return it! Graduate student schedules may vary - but it's still a good idea to think about where you will be and what your voting plan is.

If you are an Oregon voter (students can decide if they want to vote in Oregon or another home state), please check your voter registration and mailing address ASAP. The McCall Center has resources to help you explore why this election matters, how best to register / check your registration, and where to find additional support (e.g. if you're voting in another state).
