Voter Registration

Voter registration is officially conducted through the office of the Clackamas County Clerk for Oregon City residents. Voter registration forms are also available at the City Hall in Oregon City, any local driver's license or motor vehicle facility, or download the form using the following instructions and mail it to the Clackamas County Clerk's Office. Registered voters who have changed their address, name, or party affiliation are required to complete a new registration form.

You may register to vote in Oregon if:

• You are a resident of Oregon
• You are a citizen of the United States of America
• You are at least 16 years of age

Note: If you are 16 years of age, you will not receive a ballot until an election occurs on or after your 18th birthday.

A suspended Driver's License is still valid, a revoked Driver's License is not valid. If you do not have a current, valid Oregon DMV Driver's License/ID, you must provide the last 4 digits of your Social Security number.

If you do not have a current, valid Oregon DMV Driver's License/ID or a Social Security number, you must affirm this on the voter registration card, and if you are registering by mail, you must provide a copy of one of the following:

• Valid photo identification
• A paycheck stub
