The Oregon legislature adjourned on July 7. This year’s session passed four election law bills. The most significant was SB 802, allowing 16-year-olds to register to vote (although they won’t be able to vote until they are 18). The law had already allowed 17-year-olds to register.
HB 2696 made a slight change to the Voters Pamphlet regarding bond measures. HB 3408 clarified that an applicant to become a registered voter need not be the person who delivers the form. HB 2298 expanded the list of candidates who must file a Statement of Economic Interest.
HB2298 may end up having constitutional trouble if this is effective on those seeking Federal office, for it looks like an unconstitutionally-added qualification.
HB 2298 only applies to candidates for state and local office, not federal office.
