Why is Oregon one of the very few states that does not produce a statewide precinct shapefile? They are all left up to the counties, making it difficult to access, use, and combine. Also, some counties charge for access.

Can Oregon, like other states, create a statewide precinct shapefile?

Is Oregon's combination of automatic voter registration, in which new registrants are defaulted into NAV, and closed partisan primaries working? And how long can it be sustained without changes?

If not changed, how should the SoS address the fact that young voters are overwhelmingly NAV?

In the year 2025, why does SoS search pages for candidates, measures, etc. kick you out if you have more than one tab open? (Or sometimes when it just thinks you do.)

What is the status of the Oregon Election Modernization Project?

This was the status posted late last year. Updates used to be linked to on the SoS "Voting and Election" page. I can no longer find it.
