Oregon will remove inactive voters from rolls following Trump administration lawsuit

Oregon will pare back voter rolls to exclude inactive voters, a move prompted by a Trump administration lawsuit concerning voter accuracy. The change will remove approximately 160,000 inactive voters whose ballots were returned as undeliverable or who haven't voted in two presidential elections. This action aims to address concerns about voter roll accuracy and is expected to have minimal practical impact. Oregon previously designated voters as inactive rather than removing them, allowing them to vote by notifying election officials of address changes. The state will now add a notice to voter registration forms about potential cancellation for non-voting.
