October newsletter
Dear friends and neighbors,
Every November election, my message to you is short: Vote.
Your vote is your voice.
If you have already voted, thank you!
If you have yet to vote, do it today! Make sure you understand how to fill out your ranked-choice ballot and then fill it out.
Multnomah County has more than 30 official ballot drop sites, including all 19 county libraries.
Make sure your vote is cast by November 3 at 8 p.m.
Thank you,
Jennifer
