HAPPENING SOON: @OregonSOS will hold a news conference to provide an update on the election situation in Clackamas County.

katu.com/news/local/ore… #LiveOnK2
As of last night (latest update), Clackamas County says there are nearly 115k ballots. It's not clear if that's a finalized total or just known ballots at this point.

#LiveOnK2
Clerk Sherry Hall previously said about 2/3 of ballots were blurry. If that 115k is number of cast ballots, that would potentially mean about 75k have blurry barcodes.
Here’s a look inside Clackamas County Elections this afternoon where the duplication process is underway.
The duplication process is extremely arduous. In a nutshell, a blurry barcode ballot is pulled from the “ready to pull” shelf. It is then matched w/ a blank matching ballot.
Those are then placed on “ready to dup” shelf where a table of people who carefully replicate it.
JUST IN: CLERK HALL HAS GIVEN TIMELINE TO @OregonSOS.

"We estimate that the latest count of 38,381 ballots that we know require duplication, elections staff should duplicate anywhere from 4000 to 10000 ballots each day."

Est. to take 4-9 days to get thru duplicates.

JUST IN: We got video of Clack. Co. Elections on 5/19. We submitted a public records request for this Friday, when McLeod-Skinner's team formally complained, saying Rep. Schrader's observer was allowed to be inside an hour before Mc-Leod-Skinner's observer.
Here's the backstory:

katu.com/news/local/mcl…

Rep. Schrader's team told me Friday that it was Clerk Sherry Hall who opened the door and allowed them inside, but Hall told us ""I don't know how someone got in at 7 [o'clock]."
One key, due to blurry ballots, there was elections work being done at 7am. Observers should've been allowed in.
County Chair Smith told people to observe the process which would go from at 7am-6pm daily.
But when McLeod-Skinner's observer showed up at 8AM, they weren't let in.

INDOOR MASKING IN OREGON -- It's likely here to STAY.

Today, @OHAOregon worked with stakeholders (like those in the restaurant industry, business assoc., etc.) to discuss making the current indoor mask mandate permanent.

#LiveOnK2
Yes -- that may sound alarming. Here's what you need to know about it:

-The current rule is temporary. It can't be in place more than 180 days.
-Making the rule permanent allows the state to keep the rule.
-The rule can be repealed.

#LiveOnK2
So what does the RAC do?

FROM OHA:

"The purpose of the RAC meeting is to seek input from committee members on the rules, including the projected burden & fiscal impact of the rules & suggestions for alternative language."

They give feedback on what should(n't) be in the ruling

.@PortlandPolice tells us so far this year there have been 62 deadly crashes on Portland streets. 26 of those crashes have involved pedestrians. PPB says we haven't seen this high of numbers in decades. #LiveOnK2 Image
PPB says some of the city's houselessness population have died in these crashes.

"Some of them were impaired, some of them it’s the nature of where their camps - where they’ve set up their home," PPB's Sgt. Engstrom said.
PPB says the # of DUI arrests have gone down by a 1/4 to 1/3.
"That number is super low & it’s not for lack of drunk drivers," Engstrom said. "It’s for lack of our ability to get out there & find them."
He says the PPB staffing shortage is playing a part in these tragedies.

Legacy Health employees tell us hundreds of healthcare workers were denied their #COVID19 vaccine exemption.

They were emailed Monday. One respiratory therapist, Coleman Nagy, shared his letter with us.

How is the health system determining which exemptions will be honored:
If your exemption didn't meet the consistency/specificity criteria, your request was denied.

Nagy told: "your request was carefully reviewed and your request for religious exemption was denied because the information you provided does not meet one or more of the criteria.”
Another employee, Arnhild “Hildi” Espino, a vascular access specialist at Mt. Hood M.C. also had an exemption denied.

Hildi & Coleman submitted religious exemptions (below).

Hildi est. ~400-800 employees had their requests denied.

She's appealing the exemption process.

Journalism means telling the whole story. You can’t accurately tell a story you know nothing about. That’s why we spend so much time interviewing people impacted (just as we did today before this incident). We had every right to be there/record.
I went into broadcast journalism because I value the importance of video. We can bring scenes into your living room - for you to watch - and we give you the facts. This was our effort to show you what was behind the barricades. We stayed on public property.
What hurts most is how little faith ppl have in journalism. I can honestly tell you I’m a fair, passionate journalist.
In tears, while telling my fiancé what happened, I made sure before I hung up the phone to remind him of my passion for journalism. I believe in what I do.
