TROUT DENNIS RICHARDSON DIRECTOR SECRETARY OF STATE 255 CAPITOL ST NE, SUITE 501 LESLIE CUMMINGS, PhD SALEM, OREGON 97310 DEPUTY SECRETARY OF STATE (503) 986-1518 Dear Oregon Voter, This November 6, 2018 General Election marks 20 years since Oregon’s voters chose to conduct all elections through the mail. Citizens placed Measure 60 on the ballot through the initiative process and then overwhelmingly approved it at the 1998 General Election. Over these past 20 years, we have realized the benefits of increased access and ease of access to the ballot, higher voter turnout, and improved election security because of our first in the nation vote-by-mail system. Today, those benefits continue as over 2.7 million Oregonians will receive a ballot in the mail beginning on October 17. I would like to congratulate the voters of Grant County who had the highest voter turnout at the Primary Election this past May. Which county will have the highest turnout in the upcoming General Election? My goal as Secretary of State is to maximize voter participation and access while ensuring election integrity, so that our democracy can be strong and vibrant. You can have confidence that our elections are secure and accurate and that every vote counts. I encourage you to study the issues, make your voice heard, and participate in all elections. You can find out if you are registered to vote or update your registration, like changing your address or political party, at www.oregonvotes.gov/myvote. If you are not registered to vote, you must register by October 16 to be eligible to vote in the November 6, 2018 General Election. You can register online at www.oregonvotes.gov/register or fill out and return the form in this pamphlet. Beginning October 17, ballots will be mailed from every county elections office. After you have filled out your ballot, be sure it is physically received, not just postmarked, by your county elec- tions office by 8:00 pm on November 6. Remember, postmarks do not count. You can return your ballot through the mail, take it to your local elections office, or drop it in one of the many drop boxes throughout the state. To track your ballot or to find your nearest drop box, visit www. oregonvotes.gov/myvote. If you have questions about voter registration, filling out your ballot, or getting a replacement ballot, please call our toll-free hotline at 1-866-673-8683 or call your county election official. As your Secretary of State, I encourage every eligible Oregonian to register and vote in this and every election. I am committed to making voting easy, convenient, and secure.

  • Are Condorcet and Minimax Voting Systems the Best?1
    1 Are Condorcet and Minimax Voting Systems the Best?1 Richard B. Darlington Cornell University Abstract For decades, the minimax voting system was well known to experts on voting systems, but was not widely considered to be one of the best systems. But in recent years, two important experts, Nicolaus Tideman and Andrew Myers, have both recognized minimax as one of the best systems. I agree with that. This paper presents my own reasons for preferring minimax. The paper explicitly discusses about 20 systems. Comments invited. [email protected] Copyright Richard B.

I know it is hard to know what information to trust with all the information and misinformation we experience in our lives today, especially during a presidential election. Yours is a difficult job to sort through it all to make an informed decision. And while I know it is hard, I know you can and will do it. We recognize that with unlimited sources of information it can be challenging to find informa- tion that is accurate and trustworthy. Fortunately, there are some simple questions you can ask yourself to help identify misinformation: 1) Is there any data or evidence presented to support the information? 2) Does this information seem designed to push my political buttons? 3) Is there something about this information that doesn’t seem right or too bizarre to be true? 4) Who is sharing this information? 5) Does this individual or group have an agenda? Be an informed voter and don’t believe everything you see or hear.

MOTION In the Matter of Adopting the Community Health Needs Assessment and the 2016 – 2019 Community Health Improvement Plan. II. AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY The Board of Health is being asked to review the Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA) and the Community Health Improvement Plan (CHIP) for the period 2016 – 2019 and to approve Plan acceptance and implementation. III. BACKGROUND/IMPLICATIONS OF ACTION A. Board Action and Other History The Board of County Commissioners, sitting as the Board of Health, adopted both the Community Health Assessment (CHA) and the 2013–2016 Community Health Improvement Plan (CHIP) via BO 13-06-25-1 BOH. The CHA was an attempt to interpret data related to the health of the community. The CHIP represented a communitywide plan to improve the health issues/disparities identified via the CHA. The Board of Health and the BCC have been involved in the development of priorities and strategies related to the implementation of the 2013 – 2016 CHIP, including incorporating the CHIP strategies in the current County Strategic Plan. The BOH/BCC have received both ongoing updates of the CHIP implementation 2 and have been strategic partners in advancing CHIP priorities, particularly identifying six specific areas for work by Lane County. The current 2015-2016 Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA) and the 2016-2019 CHIP have been produced through collaboration among Lane County Public Health, PeaceHealth Oregon Region, Trillium Community Health Plan, and the United Way of Lane County – the Live Healthy Lane partnership.

It’s time to vote. In these pages, you will see the candidates running for office this year. These are the words they’ve chosen to represent themselves to you. Read them carefully and evaluate what they have to say because the decisions made by our elected officials make a difference in our lives. Voting is only one of the duties we share in preserving our blessings of liberty. We serve on juries. We pay our taxes. We serve in the armed forces. We don’t litter. And we vote. Voting is no mere footnote to democracy. It’s what separates us from tyrants, a practice we’ve nurtured and encouraged for more than two centuries and preserve today as a bulwark in keeping our country safe and free. It’s already been an exciting year. In the spring, Oregon saw a huge surge in voter registration and we may well set new records in November for turnout. Registering, remember, is only half the process and doesn’t mean a lot unless you actually vote.

    May 20, 2021 The Honorable Charles Schumer The Honorable Nancy Pelosi Majority Leader Speaker United States Senate United States House of Representatives Washington, DC 20510 Washington, DC 20515 The Honorable Mitch McConnell The Honorable Kevin McCarthy Minority Leader Minority Leader United States Senate United States House of Representatives Washington, DC 20510 Washington, DC 20515 Dear Leader Schumer, Speaker Pelosi, Leader McConnell, and Leader McCarthy: As 81 mayors representing communities across 28 states and the District of Columbia, we write to urge Congress to enact the Affordable Housing Credit Improvement Act (AHCIA) of 2021, S. 1136 and H.R. 2573, which would strengthen and expand the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (Housing Credit). The Housing Credit is our nation’s primary tool for encouraging private investment in affordable rental housing. While rental assistance is critical for keeping renters in their homes during this time of financial instability, the need for more affordable housing production and preservation in cities and towns preceded the pandemic. Since its creation in the Tax Reform Act of 1986, the Housing Credit has been the primary financing source for the production and preservation of affordable rental housing. It has financed nearly 3.5 million apartments since 1986, providing affordable homes to approximately 8 million low-income households, including families, seniors, veterans, and people with disabilities. The Housing Credit brings together private-sector resources and oversight by state agencies, resulting in a durable solution to the need for affordable housing. The AHCIA of 2021 includes a number of provisions that would enhance the program and enable cities like ours to better serve the affordable housing needs in our communities.

We started the activity with an opening ceremony which included a moment of silence for the loss of a great mentor, Clifford “Greywolf” Latta, who had walked on in October. Greywolf was very enthusiastic about making drums and helping others bring drumming into their lives, he had been working with us on drums for several years. Though he has walked on he was with us in spirit as we made over two dozen drums that day. As drum making is also an alcohol and drug prevention activity we also discussed Canoe Journey, the Healing of the Canoe Curriculum, and mentioned that November 19th is also National Survivors of Suicide Loss Day. If you or someone you know is having thoughts of hurting themselves, reach out and contact us or call the National Suicide Prevention Hotline at 1-800-273-8255. At noon, activities began for our 32nd Restoration Celebration.
