“It’s a disgusting use of power in the cynical times we are inâ€
The Chair of the Oregon Republican Party has issued a statement to counter a story that they expect will be published soon. In an email to State Central Committee members, Party Chair Justin Hwang said,
It has come to my attention that a premiere media outlet in Oregon is getting ready to publish a story regarding GOP apathy and division leading up to the 2022 midterms. This is a brazen attempt by the liberal media to suppress GOP turnout because they know that if we show up in droves, we win BIG!
Insiders have identified that Democrats have several challenges in Oregon this political cycle:
- The Biden Administration is very unpopular and causes the Democrat brand to suffer
- At least three Congressional races are competitive
- Peter DeFazio's retirement has created a vacancy in CD4 in Southern Oregon
- Kurt Schrader's primary defeat created a vacancy in CD5 in Bend and Southeast Portland
- The newly created CD6 in the Willamette Valley is an automatic vacancy
- Tina Kotek has what some consider to be a less-than-stellar record in almost a decade as Oregon House Speaker where she controlled virtually all legislation.
- The waning power of public employee unions
Hwang continued,
It seems that given the awful record of Kate Brown and her accomplices in the legislature, Betsy Johnson and Tina Kotek, they are using their allies in the media to suppress our vote with false narratives and salacious gossip.
It's a disgusting use of power in the cynical times we are in but not the least bit surprising. Folks in the media are terrified about losing power and the influence they hold over leftist politicians. They know that Christine Drazan, Cheri Helt, and our slate of candidates running for Congress and in the legislature will be leaders who follow truth and prosperity, not the woke and broke policies that have failed us in Oregon for decades.

Name a single issue they have improved? You can’t!
The same folks running under claims that they'll fix homelessness created this humanitarian crisis. These same folks who defunded our police officers are now promising to restore order. These same politicians that ended educational requirements and left our kids behind want to lead our state into a more disastrous future, but we are not going to let that happen. Not this year, not this time.
