State Not Sending Voter Information To Committee

Hood River County Elections Supervisor Kim Kean says they are getting calls from people worried about their voter information being sent to the federal government, and she is reassuring them that the state of Oregon is not turning over information to the Presidential Advisory Commission on Election Intergrity.  Oregon Secretary of State Dennis Richardson wrote a letter to the panel’s vice-chair Kris Kobach saying that state law prohibits disclosure of much of the information they requested, including social security and drivers’ license numbers.  Kean adds county clerks and the state have a number of security measures in place to protect, and keep current, voter records.  In his letter to the federal advisory commission Richardson said there is very little evidence of voter fraud in the state, adding he believes the federal government should not be involved in dictating how states conduct their elections.
