​February 2025 – Navigating Campaign Finance Filings

Register here!​

The next election is already around the corner and deadlines creep up quickly while you’re busy campaigning. You are invited to join a training to discuss the process of navigating election filings. We will discuss what it takes to get on the ballot and how to navigate the ins-and-outs of campaign finance reporting.

This training is for anyone interested in running for office or being a part of a campaign, whether it’s your first time running or whether you’re looking for a refresher. We encourage candidates, fundraisers, treasurers, and anyone involved in campaigning to join.​

March 2025 – Political Communication Disclosures

March 26, 2025, at Noon (12 p.m. to 1 p.m.)

Register here!​

Political communications are often required to include a “Paid for By” disclosure, and if you’re involved in making political communications in Oregon you need to know how disclosure requirements apply to you. During this learning opportunity, we will discuss the types of communications included, specific requirements, and exemptions based on who’s making the communication.

​ Disclosures required by ORS 260.266 help voters ‘follow the money’ by requiring that certain communications (which include more than just TV and radio ads) include identifying information. Some small campaigns may be exempt from disclosures entirely, while larger ones may be required to provide additional information like the names of top donors. We encourage candidates, fundraisers, treasurers, and anyone involved in campaigning to join us for this learning opportunity! ​
