Replacement Ballots Sent
Multnomah County Elections is replacing
ballots for up to 9,300 voters, parts of
three precincts in East County, and 1.6%
of all registered voters as their original
ballots omitted Measure 26-244. Elections
learned of the omission May 2. Affected
voters received a version of the ballot
designed for people who live outside
Metro’s jurisdictional boundaries. New
ballots for those voters were placed in the
mail starting May 2. Most of the voters,
are in two precincts in Gresham, with the
remainder just south of the city. Affected
voters will also receive a letter with their
new ballot explaining what to do if they’ve
already received their original ballot and
how to process their replacement ballot.
Elections staff are available to speak with
anyone affected at 503-988-VOTE.
Arrests Made at PSU
Arrests made at PSU’s library after

of 30 arrests, which included at least 6
Portland State students. Portland State
University Officers put one individual on
a police mental health hold and arrested
one other person. Portland Police
are continuing to investigate crimes
committed in the library and will continue
to make arrests when appropriate and
forward cases to the Multnomah County
District Attorney for prosecution.
