It seems that momentum is building, at least away from Kotek. IMHO, it remains to se seen if independent candidate Betsy Johnson has any chance, or is running merely to siphon votes away from Drazan.

I live in Oregon, but have seen few ads for any governor candidate.

Quite a race there but I sense the “Chamber of Commerce” and police unions in Oregon don’t want an extreme left atmosphere of homeless encampments and crime in Portland.

A three-way race opens the door to a Republican governor.

I have seen ads...Kotek is abortion...Johnson not memorable...Drazan focused on not more of same, ie change. Johnson will siphon from Kotek..if she was smart she would withdraw and send her voters to Drazan.

Nike owns a huge amount of property as their corporate HQ in Beaverton.
The Portland politicians have had their eyes on a way to grab it for decades.

Knight is huge donor to Univ.of Oregon athletics. I wonder how long those Eugene antifa types let that continue.

Elections don't get any more rigged than Oregon.

it has been mail in only for decades.

Even Phil Knight remembers the Bhagwan fiasco, he was deep in the fray. Well now the Bhagwan followers scatterred and are embedded deep in the Oregon bureaucracy

I wonder, among the C-suite crowd, how many would love to support the right side but are cowed by their own HR departments and DEI gay-stapos, trembling lest a lifetime of work crumble before cancel culture.

One Mike Lindell is an aberration. A Bob Unanue (Goya) is coincidence and conspiracy theory. Once the dam breaks?

Gee and old Phil supported all those causes right up until crime became too much of a problem...... You would think old Phil would understand action / cause relationships...
