IN BRIEF
Candidates’ forum set for April 19
A candidates’ forum is planned for April 19.
The forum, scheduled from 7 to 9:30 p.m. at
Clatsop Community College’s Patriot Hall, will
feature candidates for Clatsop County commis-
sion, the state House and state Senate and U.S.
Congress. Chris Breitmeyer, the college president,
will serve as moderator.
The forum is being held by the American Asso-
ciation of University Women Astoria Branch in
collaboration with the college, The Astorian and
Coast Community Radio.
The event will be livestreamed and broadcast
later by Coast Community Radio.
Voters urged to mail ballots
early for May election
Voters who plan to mail their ballots for the May
17 election are encouraged to do so early to ensure
the ballots are counted.
Mailed ballots must now be postmarked by
Election Day. But there is no guarantee that ballots
dropped into a mailbox after the box’s final pickup
time on May 17 will be postmarked that day, Clat-
sop County said in a statement.
Oregon changed the law to help ensure bal-
lots postmarked on Election Day and received by
county clerks within seven days would be counted.
Voters can also drop ballots off at several drop
boxes by 8 p.m. on Election Day. The drop boxes
are located outside the county office at Ninth and
Exchange streets in Astoria, at Warrenton, Gear-
hart, Seaside and Cannon Beach city halls, at
Knappa High School and Jewell School.
Voters must be registered by April 26. The
county plans to start mailing out ballots on April
27.
The county clerk’s office plans to livestream the
ballot-counting process. This will include the ver-
ification of ballot signatures starting roughly May
2 and the counting of ballots starting on May 13.
