Oregon’s elections director, Stephen Trout, was fired just weeks after penning a memo to secretary of state candidates warning of issues with the state’s election system.

Oregon Secretary of State-elect Shemia Fagan, a Democrat, says she spoke with Trout, who was fired last week, and planned to examine the issues he raised.
