The ballots are coming! The ballots are coming!
By KVAL Web StaffEUGENE, Ore. -- The ballots are coming! The ballots are coming!
Ballots for the Nov. 4 election went in the mail Friday. You should receive your ballot by Wednesday; if it's a no-show, call (541) 682-4234. Beware: Lane County's bulging ballots are too bulky for standard 42 cent stamps. You'll need to pony up for a 59 cent stamp if you want your vote to count.
If you elect to wait until you can see the whites of the candidates' eyes, remember: postmarks don't count. Ballots mailed after Halloween may or may not arrive in time, so vote early or resolve to deliver your ballot by hand. Update: On Wednesday, Oct. 22, the Lane County Elections office agreed to pay the difference in postage, if any, required to deliver the ballots. However, State Rep. Chris Edward, D-Eugene, asked that any voters whose ballots are returned by the U.S. Postal Service contact him at laneballotreturn@gmail.com. |

You better get your stamp act together, however: none if by land, but 59 if by post.
And before you cry "poll tax," remember you can always deliver your ballot by hand to any
