About this Event
This non-partisan community forum will feature election officials from Wasco and Hood River Counties in Oregon and Klickitat County in Washington and is sponsored by the Gorge UU Fellowship.
The purposes of the Forum are to educate the public and answer questions about how elections in our Gorge communities are administered.
“Free, Fair, Safe and Secure” is part of a series of forums on democratic processes sponsored this year by the Gorge UU Fellowship and held at the Rockford Grange. Forums topics have included a winter forum on free speech and the press and also a spin forum on voting and elections held prior to primaries and special elections in both states.
Misinformation and disinformation about the conduct of federal and state elections have resulted in confusion and threatened public confidence in the electoral process. Please come and participate in this important community forum. Bring your questions and observations.
Issues to be addressed by Oregon and Washington election officials will include:
- Voter registration eligibility and timing,
- Receipt and return of ballots by mail,
- Ballot drop box placement and security,
- Tabulation of ballots and votes,
- Transparency in the election process,
- Incorrect or unlawful registration and voting, and
- Making a personal plan for voting in November.
Confirmed forum panelists include Klickitat County Auditor Heather Jobe, Klickitat County Elections Administrator Brandie Sullivan, Wasco County Clerk, Chrissy Zaugg and Hood River County Acting Clerk Kelly Silva Magaña.
