New Oregon Secretary of State, a Republican, Signals Radical Shift, Aligns with Leftist Governor
PJ Media ^ | April 8, 2019 | Jeff Reynolds

New Oregon Secretary of State Bev Clarno has fired top executives hired by her predecessor. Many observers fear that this signals a major change in the office, and a closer alignment with Democratic Governor Kate Brown. Brown appointed 83-year-old Clarno, a former Republican speaker of the House, to fulfill the remainder of the term for Dennis Richardson, who died in office in February.

On Monday, April 1, Secretary Clarno's first day in office, she dismissed Deputy Secretary of State Leslie Cummings, chief of staff Deb Royal, and governmental and legal affairs director Steve Elzinga. Sources told PJ Media that Clarno did not personally tell the executives that they were no longer employed, but rather had the HR department carry out the firings with no notice or infill plan. Many Oregon voters have expressed concern that Richardson's legacy was being undermined with these actions, and openly wondered at the motivations for appointing Clarno to the position.

“You can’t because FReeper Lurker will scream about how there’s going to be two extra Democrats in the Senate.”

Because it’s true. It’s called “math”. Check into it sometime.

Those 2 liberal Senators already exist and would be confined to that liberal area. The 2 new Senators would be Republican.

Talk about math sheesh

“The 2 new Senators would be Republican.”

Is that a guarantee?

One would think it was just satire, but the nation gets closer to it everyday. B, it’s what plants crave.
