Voter Registration in Oregon

Voter registration in Oregon is open to all residents of the state who are U.S. citizens and who will be 18 years old as of the date of the election in which they wish to vote.

Qualified individuals may register to vote or update existing voter registration information by doing the following:

• Sign the completed form

• Mail the form to your county elections office or drop it off in person

Voters who are unable to sign the form because of a disability must also complete the Signature Stamp Attestation Form.

Oregon residents may register to vote when they fill out their driver's license application or vehicle registration at the Oregon Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV). Voter registration cards may also be obtained at the following places:

• County elections offices

• The Oregon Secretary of State's office

• Voter registration drives

For those who are registering to vote by mail for the first time in Oregon, a copy of valid identification (ID) must also be provided.

Acceptable ID includes the following:

• Paycheck stub with name and address

• Utility bill with name and address

• Bank statement with name and address
