Twitter Removes Account on Oregon Voter Ballot Scandal — Taking the Word of Oregon State Officials and Ignoring Testimony of 2,000 Mostly GOP Voters!

1. Oregon election officials say they got their usual rash of complaints this year from voters who were certain they had registered as Democrat or Republican and were upset when they received a non-partisan ballot for the May primary without contests for president, Congress, secretary of state or the Legislature.
2. Andrea Chiapella, a spokeswoman for Oregon Secretary of State Bev Clarno, a Republican, said the office received a few requests to look into what might have happened, but that we haven’t found any improper changes to a voter's party affiliation without the voter's permission.
3. Statements online that say that party has been changed against their wishes is misinformation and our Elections Director is trying to work with Facebook and Twitter to have it deemed as such and removed, Secretary of State spokeswoman Andrea Chiapella told Lead Stories.
4. People who posted on the My Party Was Changed Oregon Facebook page said they had been registered with one of the major parties for years, but received nonpartisan ballots; most said they were Republicans.
5. The news story said that was largely due to the motor voter law and the fact that most voters don’t select their party affiliation even though they should receive a postcard from the state instructing them on how to do so on the state elections website or by mail.
6. Some have questioned if the change in party affiliation was related to Oregon's motor voter law, which took effect in 2016 and automatically registers people who were not registered to vote.
7. Andrea Chiapella, spokesperson for the Oregon Secretary of State’s Office, which oversees voter registration, said, “We don’t change party unless requested by the voter.
8. It’s not clear whether longtime voters who complained about receiving a nonpartisan ballot simply did not realize they were not registered as a Democrat or Republican, or if mistakes were made by state officials, perhaps at the DMV, that resulted in voters being defaulted to nonaffiliated status.
