This Veteran's Day, we honor all those who've served. This is a photo of my grandmother during her service as a Rosie the Riveter in the Portland shipyards during WWII. The photo shows her as a young woman in her sitting astride ship 939 which was named after her. #orpol https://t.co/D24JoWYYMn — PolitiTweet.org

@TomScottK1 You might be happy to learn that Oregon's 36 independent county elections officials conduct audits after each statewide election. You can learn more about this and even view the audits here https://t.co/uzlKLPh5fQ — PolitiTweet.org

@Heatherc_77 Sorry about the delay. This can happen when a county has a backlog of ballots that need to go through the signature verification process — a slow, but important anti-fraud measure. If you call your county they should be able to give you an update https://t.co/QsxEOw4qno — PolitiTweet.org

@Sbeergon Thank you for being a voter! — PolitiTweet.org

@PaulHodls @TinaKotek Hi, I'm happy to clear this up. 55% is the current voter turnout. This is *not* the % of votes cast because some people choose not to vote. The media provides helpful projections, which is what candidates are responding to. More on that here https://t.co/imc4XzbMQF — PolitiTweet.org

Shemia Fagan, Oregon Secretary of State @OregonSOS

Oregon has zero credible reports of widespread voter fraud in this election. Zero. The rare cases that do happen will be caught and the votes won't count. #orpol #TrustedInfo2022 — PolitiTweet.org

@FreeManThink1 @repblumenauer @RepBonamici @RonWyden @OregonGOP @multco Media outlets will project a winner if the gap between the candidates is so large that they feel confident they can predict the outcome. These are not official results, just projections. — PolitiTweet.org

Shemia Fagan, Oregon Secretary of State @OregonSOS

Official results take even longer. Counties retest their voting machines and conduct post-election audits, prioritizing accuracy and transparency. Only after all of this will the Secretary of State certify the election on December 15, making it official. — PolitiTweet.org

Shemia Fagan, Oregon Secretary of State @OregonSOS

Elections officials report results as they become available. In close contests, like what we have this year, Media outlets may wait until many of the results are reported before projecting a winner. This is normal and expected. — PolitiTweet.org

Shemia Fagan, Oregon Secretary of State @OregonSOS

Trained workers stay late into the evening on Election Day to review and verify returned ballots, and they are back at it again today. Over the next week, elections officials will continue to count valid, on-time ballots and perform other post-election duties. — PolitiTweet.org

Shemia Fagan, Oregon Secretary of State @OregonSOS

Also, ballots that are cast on-time under the new postmark law continue to arrive after Election Day. They are valid and cast on-time, so they are counted when they arrive. — PolitiTweet.org

Shemia Fagan, Oregon Secretary of State @OregonSOS

Oregon has a rigorous process that makes voter fraud nonexistent in all but vanishingly rare cases, and that takes time. Every signature on every ballot envelope is verified. And the vote tallying process prioritizes accuracy and transparency, not speed. — PolitiTweet.org

Wondering why some contests are “too close to call?” This isn’t new; it’s normal. Election results are not immediate. Media outlets provide helpful projections, but official results take several weeks to finalize. Here’s why … 🧵 https://t.co/5eFchngQ1X — PolitiTweet.org
