Oregon’s long running vote-by-mail means that, despite voting in every election since I was 18, I’ve never been to polling place or gotten an I Voted sticker. One of these would make up for that.
Are you sure? Next time you get your mail ballot check the extra sheets papers and information pamphlets for a sticker.
I know that initial ballot envelopes in some other vote by mail states do include that sticker, along with other election information, but I have no idea how universal that approach it.
Here’s a video of The Oregonian trying to fix the situation.
One county offers proper stickers and I think the county that Portland is in (Multnomah) offers “virtual” stickers, but I’ve never lived in those counties.
I am disappointed in Oregon. I have voted by mail in Colorado and California (not at the same time lol), and both states mailed the I Voted stickers with the ballot.

But until your vote is turned in those stickers are lies.
I don’t (personally) trust my state (or any red state really) to not just “not count” mail-in ballots, sadly.
I am, however, lucky enough to have a polling place that doesn’t get overwhelmed and crowded, so in-person voting isn’t too bad.
I have done mail in ballots every year since my second time voting and I get the “I voted” sticker in the envelope the ballot comes in.
