Official 2007 November Special Election Voters’ Pamphlet Voters’ Pamphlet Your official 2007 November Special Election Voters’ Pamphlet provides you with information about state measures 49 and 50. These measures were referred to the ballot by the 2007 Legislature. Additionally, you can find information about vote-by-mail and voter registration, as well as contact information for county elections officials across the state. For each of the measures in this Voters’ Pamphlet you will find the following information: (1) the ballot title; (2) the estimate of financial impact; (3) an explanation of the estimate of financial impact, if determined to be necessary by the committee; (4) the complete text of the proposed measure; (5) an impartial statement explaining the measure (explanatory statement); (6) a legislative argument in support of the measure; and (7) any arguments filed by proponents and opponents of the measure. The ballot title, estimate of financial impact, and explanatory statement for each measure was written by the legislature. Citizens or organizations may file arguments in favor of or in opposition to measures by purchasing space for $500 or by submitting a petition signed by 1,000 voters. Arguments in favor of a measure appear first, followed by arguments in opposition to the measure, and are printed in the order in which they are filed with the Secretary of State’s office. Measure arguments are printed as submitted by the author. The state does not correct punctuation, grammar, syntax errors or inaccurate information. The only changes made are attempts to correct spelling errors if the word as originally submitted is not in the dictionary. The Voters’ Pamphlet has been compiled by the Secretary of State since 1903, when Oregon became one of the first states to provide for the printing and distribution of such a publication. One copy of the Voters’ Pamphlet is mailed to every household in the state. Additional copies are available at the State Capitol, local post offices, courthouses and all county elections offices. Website Most of the information contained in this Voters’ Pamphlet is also available in the Online Voters’ Guide at www.oregonvotes.org. Español Una versión en español de algunas partes de la Guía del Elector está a su disposición en el portal del Internet cuya dirección aparece arriba. Conscientes de que este material en línea podría no llegar adecuadamente a todos los electores que necesitan este servicio, se invita a toda persona a imprimir la versión en línea y circularla a aquellos electores que no tengan acceso a una computadora. Important! If your ballot is lost, destroyed, damaged or you make a mistake in marking your ballot, you may call your county elections office and request a replacement ballot. One will be mailed to you as long as you request it by November 1, 2007. After that, you may pick it up at the elections office. If you have already mailed your original ballot before you realize you made a mistake, you have cast your vote and will not be eligible for a replacement ballot. Your voted ballot must be returned to your county elections office by 8pm election day, Tuesday, November 6, 2007. Postmarks do not count! County elections offices are open on election day from 7am to 8pm.
