Jackson County Voter Guide: Procedures for the May 21 Presidential Primary Election

The Jackson County Elections Office has outlined the procedures for the Presidential Primary Election on May 21, 2024. Ballots will be sent to the USPS on May 2, 2024, and should arrive at voters' addresses soon after. If a ballot is not received by May 10, voters should contact the elections office for a replacement.

Oregon voters will receive their ballots with a prepaid postage envelope. The state will pay for the postage of all mailed ballots. Note that the state only pays for ballots sent by mail. Ballots must be postmarked by May 21, 2024, to count, and they will be accepted if they arrive within seven days after the election.

Voters who prefer to drop off their ballots can do so at several locations starting May 6, 2024. Drop boxes are available 24 hours a day at various libraries in Jackson County and at the main elections office. All ballots must be dropped off by 8:00 PM on May 21, 2024.

The ballot packets now feature a security weave inside the return envelope instead of the traditional secrecy sleeve. This update aims to protect voter privacy and ensure the security of the voting process.
