We should support her. Operation Chaos evolved.
Wow, our very own Hezbollah?
Antifa Mayor? That’s a myth.
i am the leader of the Anarchists.
bow down before me and obey.

This would be different from the current mayor ... how, exactly?
Portland may as well come the rest of the way out of the closet. America already knows what it is. Thanks for the article! I hadn’t seen that news anywhere else.
I don’t see how she can be any worse than Wheeler...
If you’re going to have a limp-wristed Marxist run your city, might as well elect an avowed one.
A full fledged self professed Antifa member challenging the incumbent Antifa sympathizer and facilitator. What a choice?
Is the GOP so weak it will not even put up a token RINO candidate? How about a libertarian?
If it becomes mayor, nothing will change. Portland has been following orders from radical anarchists for 5 months, and is 100% committed to destroying this country.
Antifa, which has proven to be a Marxist Communist organization, is going to run Portland soon. the city is doomed. The people living there are doomed. I would have never thought that communism would take and gain a foothold in a free nation????
Anyone who owns property needs to sell and take what they can get before their property is worthless.
Wheeler should have learned by now that you never get anywhere by caving to the left.
Iannarone is wearing some very strange looking glasses in the photo.

Interesting mix of U.S. news and U.K. news at the site, by the way. I didn’t know that it was based in London. Looks like a good effort to inform.

Portland mayoral candidate Sarah Iannarone [she/her] positions herself as a more progressive alternative to incumbent Mayor Ted Wheeler, who is seeking his second term. She’s made police accountability a major part of her platform, and has joined protesters on numerous occasions calling for racial justice and an end to police brutality.
Iannarone joined KGW for a taping of this week’s episode of Straight Talk.
When asked if she would denounce the smaller group of nightly protests that have gone on for more than 70 nights and often turn destructive and violent, Iannarone declined.
“I know nobody controls a social movement,” she said. “We need to understand these protests are part of a healthy democracy. Peaceful protests, in my opinion, might not necessarily be moving the conversation forward.”
Iannarone’s comments were made during the show’s taping on Aug. 6. On Aug. 7, Iannarone’s campaign sent KGW this statement on the issue:
“Criminal activity is illegal, and of course I don’t condone it. What I’m focused on is ensuring police do not use violence and even lethal force against people who have done nothing wrong, as we have seen nightly, and for decades. We must not take our focus off why these recent protests began, and reimagine public safety so we can save lives. I condemn arson, obviously. I also condemn the countless deaths of Black individuals at the hands of police.”
In a democracy you get the leadership you deserve.
Portland needs a Pinochet .. martial law and 1-way helicopter rides for the antifas.
