Return your General Election ballot

Washington County registered voters are encouraged to complete their ballots, sign the return envelope, and drop them off at an official ballot drop box before 8 p.m. There are 21 ballot drop boxes across Washington County. See the complete list of drop sites below or find all locations inside the voters' pamphlet and the online Oregon Secretary of State's locator. The Washington County Elections Office is operating on extended hours from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. to assist voters.

Mailed ballots must be postmarked on or before November 3, 2026, to be accepted and counted. A stamp is not required to mail ballots via the United States Postal Service.

Voters Pamphlet

The Washington County voters' pamphlet can be viewed online. All registered voters will have also been mailed a physical pamphlet. Selected portions of the County voters' pamphlet are available in Arabic, Simplified and Traditional Chinese, Farsi, Japanese, Khmer, Korean, Russian, Spanish, Tagalog and Vietnamese. These translations can be found online at Oregonvotes.gov/WashingtonVP.

Voter assistance is available at the County's Elections Office from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m.

Washington County's Voter Assistance Team strives to minimize barriers to participating in elections so that all Washington County voters can vote as privately and as independently as possible. Voters with disabilities who need assistance with their ballot or who would like to request help in a language other than English can contact the Elections Office by phone at 503-846-5800 or by email at [email protected].

The preliminary election results will be released shortly after 8 p.m.

All ballots being actively received and processed will contribute to election updates. These updates will be shared on the Washington County voter turnout webpage. The Oregon Secretary of State's reporting webpage will provide the preliminary results for all Oregon elections.

Election Officials have until Thursday, December 10, 2026, to conclude the ballot-counting process and certify the election with the Oregon Secretary of State's elections office.
