HOOD RIVER — As November nears, the Gorge UU Fellowship is inviting residents to bring election-related questions and get the facts directly from administrators on Oct. 1 from 6:30-8 p.m. at the Rockford Grange, 4262 Barrett Drive.
This free, non-partisan community forum will feature election officials from Wasco and Hood River counties in Oregon and Klickitat County in Washington.
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. They will address 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.
“The purposes of the forum are to educate the public and answer questions about how elections in our Gorge communities are administered,” said a Gorge UU Fellowship media release. “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.”
“Free, Fair, Safe and Secure” is part of a series of forums on democratic processes sponsored this year by the Gorge UU Fellowship at the Grange.
