News Release

Ballots Due Tomorrow, October 3, For Recall Election - 10/02/23

Lane County Elections is conducting a recall election for State Representative Paul Holvey (House District 8) following a successful petition process. The date of the recall election is Tuesday, October 3, 2023. 

As a reminder, only voters who live within House District 8 will receive ballots. Voters living outside that district are not eligible to vote in this recall election. 

In order to be counted, ballots must be received at Lane County Elections by:

  • Regular mail. Ballots must be postmarked no later than October 3, 2023 and received no later than October 10, 2023. 
  • A 24/7 ballot drop box. There are 13 available ballot drop boxes for this election. A list was included with each ballot. 
  • Lane County Elections. Ballots can be turned in directly to the Lane County Elections Office during business hours. 

Voters can also monitor the election process by using the online ballot return dashboard or watching the livestream of the Lane County Elections Office on YouTube. 

The ballot return dashboard tracks how many ballots have been returned and by what method, how many ballots have been returned per precinct, signature challenges, and more. As of September 29, 8,973 ballots of a possible 40,030 had been returned – making voter turnout to that point 21 percent. 

The 24/7 livestream allows viewers to monitor the activity in the ballot processing areas of the Lane County Elections Office. Viewers can view the tentative ballot processing schedule to see when they might be most interested in tuning in. The livestream will remain available until both this recall election and the November 7 Special Election are certified. 

The first election results will be made available at www.LaneCountyOR.gov/elections at 8:00 p.m. on Tuesday, October 3.
