Oregon Measure 92 (GMO labeling) likely headed for recount

Source: KGW News

A county spokesman said as of Thursday afternoon there were about 7,300 ballots left to be counted. Those are expected to be all counted by Friday and could potentially put the "yes" campaign over the top.

"I think the 'yes' side is going to end up winning, but there will be a recount," predicted KGW political analyst Len Bergstein.

I voted yes and was being kept up to date (or at least I thought I was) by a friend back home. Last I heard it was pretty grim. I agree they need to count all the ballots and then do a recount. If it passed, let's make sure.

You can also check here if you were on the list of voters that were challenged or not signed.

But it's probably too late to fix that if you had not signed your ballot or not done it properly, but perhaps if you are on this list and there's a valid concern that you are on that list falsely, perhaps now would be the time to alert people if that is the case.
