SALEM, Ore. (AP) — County clerks in Oregon are inundated with public records requests stemming from “the big lie” that the 2020 election was stolen, even while they’re already busy preparing for the November election, the secretary of state said Monday.
Secretary of State Shemia Fagan has been visiting Oregon’s 36 counties to speak with county clerks and other elections officials, and said she’s seen the strain imposed by the avalanche of requests, from populous counties around Portland to Lake County, in southern Oregon near the California border, with only 5,590 registered voters.
“In recent weeks, we’ve seen an influx of public records requests still based on the big lie — the big lie is that the 2020 election was stolen,” Fagan said. “The lie is still impacting the operations of our elections workers, nearly two years later.”
Fagan said in a Zoom news conference that as she’s traveled around the state, she’s noticed fatigue among county clerks and other county elections officials.
“These are seasoned folks who’ve been doing this for decades in Oregon in an extremely nonpartisan way (but) they get so sick of the noise, and it’s just overwhelming,” Fagan said. Several county clerks are retiring in the next year or so, representing over a century of combined elections experience, Fagan said.
How many of those retirements are due to added stress that elections officials are facing was not immediately clear.
The main “myths” that elections officials in Oregon are confronting are that the 2020 election was stolen, that vote-by-mail elections can’t be trusted, that machine tabulators are fraudulent and that ballot boxes are not secure, said Oregon Elections Director Deborah Scroggin.
A recent conference hosted by MyPillow chief executive Mike Lindell, a major 2020 election denier, caused a flood of demands for information, Scroggin said.

It’s neat, sort of GREAT, to see public servants begin to be aware of who they are working for.....They need to start opening up the books for the WE THE PEOPLE to see.
It’s a myth that vote by mail can’t be trusted?
He does the lying for Associated Pravda - Oregon.
Poor election workers. Fair and verifiable elections, not just what the counters tell you.
Liberals lie. If their guys win, the election is secure. If their guys lose (cf. Al Gore v Jorge Busho), the election was stolen.
There they go, insulting holocaust survivors.
The original term was holocaust deniers--which brought anguish to those who, through their own eyes and ears saw the holocaust in real life.
These bastards are simply using this term for anyone who disagrees with them.
AP--Truth deniers.
I just come out and call it what it is: Vote by Fraud.
They are starting a new ‘rebranding’ calling it “The Big Lie”
Only it’s not a lie
The records are electronic, aren’t they? How much effort is it to copy them to a thumb drive, CD, or DVD?
THE STOLEN ELECTION WILL BE REVEALED-—Sooner or later.
The records are stored electronically, but the vote count records are comparisons of people to districts and if they voted or not. It is a way to see if dead people, non-residents, or real people actually voted. In WA, they have such a large advantage of Commies to R’s, that they use many who are registered in King Cty, and move them to say Lewis Cty. You see, there is same day registration. So you can live in a city 90 miles away, and register in another. Like moving around money in a bank from one to another to balance books.
