Rep. Helfrich: Public hearings needed on non-citizen voter error contradictions

HOUSE REPUBLICANS RENEW CALL FOR PUBLIC HEARING ON VOTER ROLL INTEGRITY
By Oregon House Republican Leader Rep. Jeff Helfrich,

SALEM, Ore. – In response to a report that directly contradicted official statements about how Oregon detected non-citizens on their voter rolls, House Republicans renewed their call today for a public briefing on Oregon’s election integrity efforts.

“State election officials led us to believe they caught the problem through regular internal processes. That is not true,” said House Republican Leader Jeff Helfrich (R-Hood River). “Learning about this through the press is unacceptable. We need a public hearing as soon as possible so the Secretary of State and Department of Motor Vehicles can tell us directly what happened, why, and what is being done to fix it.”
