September 20th is National Voter Registration Day in the U.S.
In order to vote in the November 8, 2022 general election, you must be registered to Vote.
You should register or update your registration if you move, change your name, or want to change your party affiliation. I don’t know for certain, but I assume for most states you can also request absentee ballots in this manner (definitely true for Oregon).
If you are not yet 18, but will turn 18 by election day, definitely register! You will receive your ballot either on or after your birthday, or when the election occurs.
In Oregon, the last day to register is October 18, 2022, and it’s really easy to do online.
You can register to vote in Oregon online. Have your driver’s license ready, and go to:

I urge every eligible person to register and vote.
