Linn Benton NAACP Political Action Committee 2024 Oregon General Election Voter Guide is HERE!

To better inform all Oregon voters, the Political Action Committee offers a voter guide for the 2024 Oregon General Election. Our guide summarizes where candidates for the U.S. House and Oregon Executive offices stand on important issues. It also presents the pros and cons for Measures 117 (Ranked-Choice Voting) and Measure 118 (a proposed corporate tax). And for contested races in the Linn Benton region, including Corvallis City Councils positions, it connects you with Zoom interviews of the candidates conducted in partnership with the League of Women Voters of Corvallis. We will update the Voter Guide throughout October. Be informed and vote wisely!
