Dear Mr. Parrott,

On February 29, 2012, you submitted a completed nominating petition for candidacy for nonpartisan nomination for the office of City of Portland Commissioner, Position No. 4. I conducted a review of the signature sheets and certified that petition ID PDX 09 met all the requirements in accordance with OAR 165-014-0270. Multnomah County Elections Division conducted the signature verification process and certified at least 100 valid signatures – the minimum number required to file by nominating petition.

I have verified that you have an active campaign account in ORESTAR and that the residency address on your filing forms is within the limits of the City of Portland. Multnomah County Elections Division verified that you are an active voter within the City of Portland as of 10/17/2011. You have met the requirements to file for the office of City of Portland Commissioner, Position No. 4 in the 2012 Primary Election and your name will be included on the ballot.

If you would like to have your name included in the Voter’s Pamphlet, you will need to contact each county’s election division (Washington, Clackamas and Multnomah), complete all necessary forms and pay the required fees by March 19th, 2012.
