What is the Easy Voting Guide and how can I access it?
Disability Rights Oregon (DRO) has once again created an easy voting guide. This guide provides a breakdown of the candidates and measures coming up in the November general election. The guide does not endorse any candidate or recommend how anyone should vote. The guide is meant to ensure equal access to the information so that Oregonians with disabilities can do their own research. It can be found at easyvotingguide.org after October 14th. If you prefer a paper copy please contact us. We expect to have paper copies available.
