May 2014 Primary Election - Multnomah County Voters' Guide for Military & Overseas Voters

The Military/Overseas Voters' Guide contains .pdf files of candidate statements, measures and measure arguments submitted for inclusion in the Multnomah County Voters' Pamphlet for the May 20, 2014 Primary Election. The information has not been edited for erroneous endorsements and candidate statements do not include the photograph that was submitted. If there is not a statement for a candidate on your ballot, that candidate did not file a statement. Viewing the .pdf files requires the free Adobe Acrobat© Reader. 

The Multnomah County Voters' Pamphlet is now available. The USPS will deliver it to all residential households in Multnomah County April 23-25, 2014.
