In the wake of a pivotal electoral event, Oregon stands out not simply for its outcomes but for how those outcomes were reached. Secretary of State LaVonne Griffin-Valade, alongside Governor Tina Kotek, has formally certified the results of the 2024 General Election and the slate of presidential electors representing the state's decision.

At the core of this certification is a message that underscores the integrity and efficiency of Oregon's election system—a system that Griffin-Valade deems "the gold standard in election administration." Despite an era where the mechanics of voting are scrutinized with great intensity, the officials asserted their confidence in the process. According to a statement from the Secretary of State, "Election was safe, secure, and accurate. I am immensely proud of their efforts, as Oregon once again demonstrated why we are the gold standard in election administration."

It is not merely the mechanics but the active engagement of Oregon's populace that has drawn attention. "Oregonians in every corner of the state stepped up to make their voices heard in this election,” remarked Governor Kotek, per the Secretary of State press release. Her words echo a sentiment of appreciation for the civic engagement that contributes as much to the state's reputation as its administrative precision does.
