Marion County Clerk To Issue Several Supplemental Ballots - 05/13/26

SALEM, OR — Marion County Clerk Elections staff identified two situations related to the May 19, 2026 Primary Election, for which Supplemental Ballots will be issued. 

For a small area in south Salem on Devon Ave SE, 20 voters received ballots that did not include the opportunity to vote for the City of Salem Mayor, Municipal Court Judge, and with City Council-Ward 4 position. 20 voters were impacted.

Separately, related to a tiny house development where units share a common street address at 8372 Enchanted Way SE, 160 individuals did not receive a ballot with the opportunity to vote on Cascade School District Measure 24-524 (Bonds to Improve and Repair Schools; Maintain Bond Tax Rate).

The Clerk’s Office will be sending 160 supplemental Cascade School District measure ballots to voters at 8372 Enchanted Way SE and 20 supplemental City of Salem ballots, with city positions, to voters on Devon Ave SE.

Both situations are being remedied quickly. Marion County Clerk staff remain devoted to election integrity, transparency, and ensuring the accuracy of Oregon’s voting system.

Effected voters will be mailed a supplemental ballot including only the missing offices. Voters should submit their already-issued ballot plus the supplemental ballot when received.

Effected voters are encouraged to watch their mail for a supplemental ballot, and to make sure the ballot is delivered to a drop box by 8pm on Tuesday, May 19. With the election less than one week away, voters are encouraged to drop off their ballot at a drop box location, rather than via mail.

Alternatively, effected voters may come into the Marion County Clerk’s office at 555 Court Street NE, 2nd Floor, Salem, OR 97301 to obtain and vote a supplemental ballot.

Supplemental ballots will be tracked and tabulated separately for full transparency.

If you have questions, you are welcome to call the Marion County Clerk’s Office at (503) 588-5041 or email elections@co.marion.or.us.
