Ballots sent to over 400,000 voters in Washington County

Voters who haven’t received their ballot by May 5 should contact Washington County Elections at 503-846-5800 or [email protected] as soon as possible to request a replacement ballot. Registered voters who have not yet turned 18 will not receive a ballot until an election occurs on or after their 18th birthday.

The County’s Voters Pamphlet was also mailed to voters this week and can be viewed online. Selected portions of the County voters’ pamphlet are available in Arabic, Simplified and Traditional Chinese, Farsi, Japanese, Khmer, Korean, Russian, Spanish, Tagalog and Vietnamese. These translations can be found online at Oregonvotes.gov/WashingtonVP.

Return your ballot by Election Day

Voters have until 8 p.m. on Tuesday, May 19, 2026, to return their ballot. Ballots can be returned by

1. Mail via the United States Postal Service
2. At an Official Ballot Drop Box

Mailed ballots must be postmarked on or before Tuesday, May 19, 2026, and received within seven days after Election Day. Ballots received after May 26, 2026, will not be accepted, regardless of the postmarked date.

Ballots can be returned to any Official Ballot Drop Box around the State. There are 21 Official Ballot Drop Boxes throughout Washington County, all of which are accessible 24 hours a day.

The County’s Elections Office will be open on Election Day from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. to assist voters.

Voters who would like to request assistance with their ballot are encouraged to reach out to the Elections Office as soon as possible to make an appointment at 503-846-5800 or email [email protected]. The last few days before an election are typically busy and wait times may be longer than usual.

Assistance for Voters with Disabilities

Assistance provided to voters with disabilities could include reading the ballot to the voter, reading the Voters’ Pamphlet to the voter, or helping the voter mark their ballot. We’re able to schedule visits to assisted living facilities and community centers, and we can also help voters in the office.

Interpretive Services

Interpretation and translation resources are available to voters who would like assistance in a language other than English. We offer in-person Spanish interpretation whenever our office is open, as well as telephone interpretation in many other languages.
