(SALEM) - If you want to take part in democracy and cast a vote in the May 16th primary, you must register to vote by Tuesday. You must register if you have changed your name, address or party affiliation. New registration cards require voters to list either their Oregon driver`s license number, or the last four numbers of your Social Security number. Oregon law does not require voters to re-register if they have no changes to report. Only registered Democrats can vote for Democratic nominees, and only registered Republicans can vote for Republican nominees in the primary election. All voters can vote for non-partisan nominees and ballot measures.
