OREGON CITY, Ore. (AP) — Clackamas County has asked the state to take control of its elections for the rest of the year.
The unusual request from commissioners to Secretary of State Kate Brown follows an error discovered last week that required the county to reprint all of its primary-election ballots.
According to The Oregonian, county clerk Sherry Hall placed a race on the May ballot that should not have gone to voters until November.
Brown was traveling Wednesday and unavailable to comment.
