Oregon Voters’ Pamphlet for uniformed, overseas citizens offers early look at list of presidential, VP candidates
SALEM, Ore. (KTVZ) — The Oregon Secretary of State’s Elections Division released the Uniformed and Overseas Citizens Absentee Voting Act Voters’ Pamphlet for the November General Election on Tuesday.
Here's their announcement:
This online version of the pamphlet is available on our website to assist military and overseas voters who receive ballots later this month, and voters interested in viewing pamphlet information online. The printed version of the Voters' Pamphlet will be distributed by mail to every Oregon household no later than the week of October 14.
The Elections Division sends the Voters’ Pamphlet to every household in Oregon ahead of statewide elections to provide voters with the information they need to fill out their ballot. Candidates and political parties may choose to submit statements outlining their positions. Information about statewide ballot measures is also contained in the pamphlet, including arguments in favor of and against.
The Voters’ Pamphlet is not a comprehensive preview of what voters will see on their ballot. Not every candidate chooses to submit a statement, and providing one is optional.
At the top of the ticket are the candidates for U.S. President and Vice President:
| Office | Candidate Name | Party | Candidate filed a Voters' Pamphlet Statement |
| President | Chase Oliver | Libertarian | ✓ |
| President | Cornel West | Progressive | |
| President | Donald J Trump | Republican | |
| President | Jill Stein | Pacific Green | ✓ |

The full list of candidates and their Voters’ Pamphlet statements are now available online.
“The Voters’ Pamphlet is a public service to voters and a proud tradition in Oregon,” said Secretary Griffin-Valade. "It’s an opportunity for candidates to present their case directly to Oregonians as they fill out their ballots. Not every candidate chooses to submit a statement, and that’s fine. It has no impact on the choices voters have in November.”
With numerous issues and candidate races on the ballot in November, we encourage all Oregonians to check their voter registration. Have you moved, changed your name, or need to register for the first time? It only takes a few minutes to get vote ready at OregonVotes.gov.
