1 in 3 eligible Oregon voters participated in last week's elections
About one in three registered voters participated in their local elections throughout Oregon last week.
That’s according to preliminary election results from the Oregon Secretary of State’s office.
In all, more than 471,000 people voted, out of the nearly 1.37 million people registered to vote in Tuesday’s elections. Fifteen of Oregon’s 36 counties held elections, voting on everything from parks to libraries to law enforcement.
The results are subject to change, according to a spokesperson for the secretary of state’s office. Ballots that were mailed and postmarked by Nov. 4 are still counted if they arrive within seven days of the election. Most areas did not hold countywide elections.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
