Oregon Ballot Access Bill Makes Progress

On June 24, the Oregon House Rules Committee passed SB 326. This is the bill that repeals the 2005 law that made it illegal for primary voters to sign an independent candidate’s petition. The 2009 repeal had already passed the Senate on May 14.

Also, it appears that the bill to legalize fusion (HB 2414) has had its contents merged into SB 326. So, both provisions are now linked together in SB 326. Thanks to Dan Meek for this news.
