    Correct. Context for non Oregonians, we have a law that auto-registers people as voters when they sign up for a government ID or driver’s license through the DMV. The citizenship check got mixed up on the DMV’s side as they’re supposed to verify it.

        Probably the secretary of state republican candidate Dennis Linthicum, who has actively sued the state to end vote by mail and originally got elected by literally stealing a primary election by abusing filing deadlines in cahoots with the Republican incumbents.

        But it’s OK because he’s a nobody that only people in the shithole empty counties know about, and his opponent has a long history with the state as a rep and state treasurer. Plus oregon very reliably votes blue.
