| The Oregonian fmr Governor 3 OR Supreme Ct Justices 14+ Judges current DA DA-elect Auxier seems to the be mainstream candidate. It's crazy that Oregon elects judges. It's not a position that should be campaigned on. |

The Oregonian Current Commissioner Sharon Meieran 3 fmr Multco Commissioners Ptld police union 4 unions I'm very sad that incumbent Sharon Meieran is term-limited -- hence my opposition to term limits. I will follower her endorsement of Mozyrsky. I'm also troubled by Moyer's current employment with an extreme activist organization. Portland and Multnomah County tend to elect activists who are so beholden to their activist community that they are unwilling to make practical compromises to get stuff done. |

Hopefully the endorsements and work history are truthful. I have no idea what the agency will do, but I don't see any reason to vote out a current board member. |

| Amends Constitution: Authorizes impeachment of statewide elected officials by Oregon Legislature with two-thirds vote by each House; establishes process | Willamette Week Portland Mercury The Oregonian It's astonishing the Oregon legislature cannot currently impeachment elected officials. This seems like a reasonable amendment that matches the federal impeachment process. |
|
|
 |
|
| Amends Constitution: Establishes "Independent Public Service Compensation Commission" to determine salaries for specified officials; eliminates legislative authority to set such salaries | Willamette Week Portland Mercury The Oregonian Appointing an unelected, unaccountable commission to set major budget decisions without any legislative or judicial oversight is crazy. Salaries for publical officials are a political decisions and there's no magical way to make a commission independent. |

| Gives voters option to rank candidates in order of preference; candidate receiving majority of votes in final round wins | Portland Mercury League of Women Voters of Oregon |
Willamette Week The Oregonian Judging from the mess from the current Portland mayoral and city council ballot, I'm not a fan of rank choice voting. I can't say that I would feel represented if my second or fifth choice candidate is elected. I prefer open primaries with top-two run-off in the general. I also don't think it makes sense to pretend parties don't matter when electing people to governing bodies. Voters are essentially electing parties when voting for state legislatures or federal congress. |

| Increases highest corporate minimum taxes; distributes revenue to eligible individuals; state replaces reduced federal benefits | Willamette Week Portland Mercury The Oregonian Universal Basic Income may be needed in the future, but this scheme will deter investment in the Oregon and raise consumer costs. |
|
|
|
| Cannabis retailers/processors must remain neutral regarding communications to their employees from labor organizations; penalties | Willamette Week Portland Mercury I'm not sure how it's constutional to force an employer to not express an opinion to workers nor do I see why marijuana workers should have a special law for themselves, but I can't vote against an unionization effort. |

| Shall Charter be amended to streamline Council approval of utility franchise agreements and remove outdated, burdensome and redundant requirements? | Willamette Week Portland Mercury The Oregonian League of Women Voters of Portland I have no idea what this law is really about, but no one seems to be against it. |
|
|
|
| Shall Charter be amended to add Independent Portland Elections Commission to oversee public financing of elections, other election-related programs? | The Oregonian Portland Mercury League of Women Voters of Portland Common Cause Oregon Honest Elections Oregon Portland Forward Building Power for Communities of Color East County Rising Next Up Action Fund |
Willamette Week Taxpayers Association of Oregon The City of Portland tends to delegate difficult decisions to committees of unelected, unaccountable activist busybodies. We elect a mayor, councilors, and auditor to make the hard decisions. |
|
|
|
| Shall Charter be amended to update City authority regarding recreational and natural areas (defined), sewers and stormwaters? | The Oregonian Willamette Week Portland Mercury League of Women Voters of Portland I have no idea what this city law is really about, but no one significant seems to be oppose it. |
|
|
|
| Shall Charter be amended to delete vague, archaic language and use a consistent definition of “protected classes”? | The Oregonian Willamette Week Portland Mercury League of Women Voters of Portland I couldn't find any signficant opposition to this law. |
|
|
|
| Shall Charter be amended to allow City to mandate weatherization of structures built before 1979 without a citywide vote? | The Oregonian Portland Mercury League of Women Voters of Portland Coalition of Communities of Color I don't see why certain building codes need to be put to a citywide vote. If a weatherization standard is unpopular, then voters can take action. Landlords have no incentive to update old homes besides regulation. |

The Oregonian | police union | fire fighters union | 6 unions Unfortunately Gonzalez has suffered from the tendency to project national political polarization on local politics. Gonzalez is NOT Trump. His positions are moderate and will likely be reigned-in by a progressive city council. Despite national statistics on reported crime, all Portlanders have experienced increased crime -- hence why 911 is continually overwhelmed. Portland is not the hellhole national conservatives like to portray us, but it's fair to admit crime is a problem. Like it or not, law enforcement is an essential part of steering people away from crime, drugs, and vandalism. Convincing prospective residents and business owners that Portland is committed to making our neighborhoods safer is the only way we will attract more investment and tax revenue to pay for the all the social services to help people get out of drug addiction, untreated mental illness, and homelessness. We cannot attract or keep people investing in Portland with reassurances that we will build a treatment center in 3-5 years to deal with the person in crisis who is doing drugs on your door step right now. |
