One week remaining to cast a ballot in the November election

Hand putting a ballot into an elections drop box.

Most voters in Lane County won't receive a ballot in the November 2023 election. But those who do have until 8 p.m. on Nov. 7 to return it.

This is definitely an off-year election. In fact, in most counties, the majority of voters won’t even receive a ballot.

That’s because the issues to be decided are mostly isolated to specific districts or cities, including fire and school levies.

There’s also a runoff election to decide who will serve the remainder of a city council term in Eugene.

Turnout so far has been fairly light, though voters have until 8 p.m. on November 7 to either return their ballot to a dropbox or get it postmarked.

Initial returns will be posted on Election Night on most county elections websites.

Here are stories produced by KLCC reporters about items appearing on the November ballot:
