Ballot Return Slow

Ballots are being returned for next Tuesday’s special districts election at a very slow pace.  Wasco County reported a return rate of just under 11 percent as of Monday morning, while Hood River County was at 7.4 percent.  The low returns are in spite of a busier than usual special districts ballot.  In Wasco County there are contested races for the Columbia Gorge Community College and Port of The Dalles boards, while in Hood River County there are plenty of candidates for seats on the Hood River Valley Parks and Recreation, Port of Hood River, and Hood River County School District board.  Ballots can be returned by mail, or at designated drop boxes.  In Wasco County those are at the Courthouse on 511 Washington in The Dalles or at Maupin City Hall, while in Hood River County they are at the County Administration Building on 601 State in Hood River or at Cascade Locks City Hall.
