Clackamas County Elections Mails Ballots to 320,000 Voters for the November 5, 2024 General Election

Twenty-six Official Ballot Drop Sites open across the county.

Oregon City, OR – Starting today, Wednesday, Oct. 16, Clackamas County Elections begins to mail general election ballots to the 320,000 registered voters in our county. 

Voters should look for their ballot to arrive in a brightly colored 6-by-9-inch ballot packet with the “Official Election Mail” logo on the envelope. 

Sign up for Track Your Ballot!

Voters can now know exactly when their ballot is in the mail to them. Track Your Ballot allows voters to follow their ballot from mailed to accepted. This is an opt-in service that alerts voters via text, phone, or email. Sign up to know when your ballot is mailed to you. After you vote and return your ballot, you’ll be alerted when it has been accepted for counting. More than 10,000 Clackamas County voters have already signed up for the free service.

 If you forget to sign your ballot envelope, or your signature does not match, we will notify you through the system, in addition to the required mailed letter. With Track Your Ballot you can take action that much sooner to ensure your vote can be counted. Your vote remains confidential.  Sign up online at clackamas.us/elections/track-your-ballot. 

Return your ballot by mail or to an Official Ballot Drop Site. 

Once voted, ballots can be mailed back with a valid postmark or returned to an Official Ballot Drop Site by 8 p.m. on Election Day, Nov. 5, 2024. No postage is needed. We recommend mailing your ballot back no later than Friday, Nov. 1 to ensure it arrives on time. Return your ballot to an Official Ballot Drop Site after that date.

Two Voter Locations to Serve You

Clackamas County Elections will open a pop-up vote center inside the Happy Valley Library starting Oct. 21 for voters needing assistance. The Happy Valley Vote Center provides a closer choice for voters in Happy Valley, Sandy, Damascus and other north-east communities. Voters can choose the location, Oregon City or Happy Valley, that works best for them.

Each voter service location is staffed by sworn election officials. At the vote center citizens can replace a lost or damaged ballot, update voter registration information, get voting assistance if they have a disability, get voting assistance in a preferred language, return their voted ballot, or vote in person. 

Hours for both locations:

Monday – Friday 8:30 a.m. – 5 p.m.

Saturday, Nov. 2, 10 a.m. – 2 p.m.

Election Day, Tuesday, Nov. 5, 7 a.m. – 8 p.m.
