If the President actually wanted to strengthen our elections, there are better places to start: adequately funding election administration, restoring the federal election cybersecurity program he cut & expanding access to vote-by-mail, paper ballot elections – just to name a few.

Bottom line: The state needs to make a plan to move adults in custody out of facilities that pose a significant risk to their health and safety, especially the Oregon State Penitentiary. #OregonNews #OregonElections #ORPol

Another attack on our elections: the President terminated the remaining 3 commissioners on the Election Assistance Commission less than 4 months from a major election. The President's decision to meddle in our elections is dangerous, it’s reckless, and, frankly, it’s desperate.

Sec. Mullin threatened state elections officials w/ fines & jail time if they don’t participate in the fed. govt’s unlawful attempts to control state elections. I will defend our elections workers, your private voter data or anything they come after w/ every tool at my disposal. #orpol #oregonnews

The President is once again making false claims about American elections; repeating conspiracy theories that have been disproven time and again so he can deny any election results he doesn’t like, just like he did in 2020. #OregonNews #OregonElections #ORPol

The President is giving a prime-time speech about elections tonight. Here's what you need to know. #OregonNews #OregonElections #ORPol

They're at it again - the Trump Admin. is trying to overstep their authority & meddle in Oregon elections. I’m not intimidated by political threats or manufactured controversy. My priority is making sure Oregonians can continue to hold govt. accountable, free from interference by politicians in D.C.

Oregon, I will go anywhere in our beautiful state and talk elections. That's why I staffed the Tack Room Saloon at the St. Paul Rodeo. Thank you to the event organizers and all you do to support the community.

I’m not intimidated by political threats or manufactured controversy. We’ve beaten back every illegal executive order and lawsuit so far. We're ready to do it again, as many times as it takes. Read more: https://bit.ly/4gpWUDn

Our commitment to the law is clear. This is just another desperate, performative episode from the federal govt. attempting to justify baseless conspiracy theories. They are wasting taxpayer dollars searching for election fraud that doesn't exist. More: https://yhoo.it/3QPsP5T

If the President actually wanted to strengthen our elections, there are a lot of good places to start: adequately funding election administration, restoring the fed. election cybersecurity program he gutted, & expanding access to vote-by-mail, paper ballot elections. More: https://bit.ly/4gpWUDn

In yet another attempt to disrupt and sow distrust in our elections, the President terminated the remaining three commissioners on the Election Assistance Commission less than four months before a major election. It’s dangerous, it’s reckless, & frankly it’s desperate.

I'm calling on the U.S. Postal Service to reassure Oregonians of its commitment to picking up ballots on or before Election Day in light of reports that ballots were left in mailboxes in Benton County on the day of the May primary election. #OregonNews #OregonElections #orpol

Tonight, the Secretary of State's office will launch a new and improved website. It's easier to navigate, works better on your phone, and has improved search tools to help you find what you're looking for fast. Visit the new website at sos.oregon.gov.

The U.S. DOJ is renewing their attempts to unlawfully meddle in Oregon elections. I’m not intimidated by political threats or manufactured controversy. My priority is making sure Oregonians can continue to hold government accountable, free from interference by politicians in D.C.

Yesterday, I received a letter from the U.S. Department of Justice stating that the federal government was ready to prosecute and imprison me and other elections officials and renewing their attempts to unlawfully meddle in Oregon elections. Here's my response:

Oregon already has the talent, creativity, and entrepreneurial spirit to be a competitive leader in the 21st century economy. I'll continue to fight for Oregon and make the case that this is a place that welcomes innovation, supports creativity and supports builders.

Happy Independence Day, Oregon. 250 years ago, our founders put us on a new path, one that rejected kings and placed the power with the people. That right is at the heart of who we are as a nation, and that's why I'm committed to defending it.

Our Audit's Division recently gave legislators some key updates about what we're doing to hold state agencies accountable and use your tax dollars wisely.  Watch the committee presentation here: https://olis.oregonlegislature.gov/liz/mediaplayer?clientID=4879615486&eventID=2026061041

While this is good news, my advice to voters has not changed: don’t wait. Vote early and use an official drop box. If you have to return your ballot by mail, do it at least a week before Election Day, especially if you live 50+ miles from Portland. More: https://bit.ly/4favEYm

Here in Oregon, we have a robust citizen initiative petition process, where everyday Oregonians can join together to make laws directly through the ballot. My job is to make sure Oregonians have equal access to this process and that everyone is treated fairly and follows the rules.

This ruling out of the U.S. Supreme Court is the latest in a series of victories for free and fair elections. We’re building momentum and protecting your rights, but we can't let our guard down. #orpol #OregonElections #OregonNews

This is huge! Today, the U.S. Supreme Court protected Oregon voters by keeping our 7-day grace period for mailed ballots in place. Let's talk about what that means, how it impacts your vote, & my advice for how to make sure your vote gets counted. More: https://bit.ly/3RaJwbZ #orpol #OregonElections

Today’s Supreme Court decision in Watson v. RNC is a win for Oregon voters. The ruling today means that legally cast ballots that arrive within 7 days of the election will still be counted and those voices will still be heard. More: https://bit.ly/4vCbJY9

The assault on our elections continues. We’re working with our partners in local elections offices to make sure every eligible Oregonian's right to vote is protected. #orpol Read more: https://bit.ly/44y9VDC

The President wants to pick & choose who gets to vote, but he’s been stopped over & over by us in court. Now, he’s getting desperate, so he’s trying to do it through the USPS. That’s illegal. Voting is an American right. We'll continue to defend it. More: https://bit.ly/4gIWJmA

Another big win for Oregon voters and our right to hold politicians accountable! I'll keep standing up for your right to vote, your privacy, and Oregon's freedom to run free, fair, and secure elections. #OrPol

Oregon, I officially certified the 2026 Primary Election. More than 1.28M eligible Oregonians voted - the most in a midterm primary election in Oregon history. Thank you to the all the local election officials and our Election Division staff for your hard work to make this happen. #OregonVotes
