Democrat Tina Kotek has won the race for Oregon governor, defeating Republican Christine Drazan.
It was a hard-fought and expensive win by Democrats, who have a huge party registration advantage in Oregon but faced strong headwinds this year amid voter frustration at problems including homelessness, violent crime and lackluster delivery of government programs and services.
As of 11 a.m. Wednesday, Kotek was ahead of Drazan by 30,000 votes, the state’s tally showed. And Multnomah County had yet to tabulate results from 80,000 ballots it has logged as received by 10 a.m. Wednesday, state and county websites showed. With Multnomah voters favoring Kotek over Drazan by a better than 70% to 30% margin, those untallied votes in Oregon’s biggest, bluest county can be expected to add another 30,000 votes to Kotek’s lead, The Oregonian/OregonLive projects.

What is strange is how the percentage of votes counted has only increased from 40% to 49% in the last six hours.

Time for E.Oregon to Secede. LA is about to vote in a pro- crime Mayor, and MN goes hard left.
I meant to type, "Gun Control"
“problems including homelessness, violent crime and lackluster delivery of government programs and services”
Oregon just voted for more of this. If you are there consider leaving or joining Idaho.
Even Nike’s founder couldn’t win this for Kotek. Tragedy.
I’m really rooting for east Oregon to join Idaho at this point.
Its always the same group of boneheads that pass these stupid laws.
They predominantly live in Multnomah, Clackamas, Washington, and Lane Counties.
Eastern Oregon needs to become Western Idaho.
“Even Nike’s founder couldn’t win this for Kotek. Tragedy.”
I hope you meant Drazan.
Phil Knight threw a bunch of money against Kotek and her progressive minions this election cycle.
I’m not sure why?
I’ve never thought of him as a big Republican donor, but something changed. I’ll have to look into it.
Yeah.

That requires Oregon to let them go. Which they NEVER will, as Dems enjoy lording over the lessers.
Hoping the courts will fix that, pronto.
Lane County, maybe? Was that when Val Hoyle got her big bump?
Tina Kotex
Looks a lot like 2020
Western Idaho - the area formerly known as Eastern Oregon - should chart its own course regardless of what Oregon wants.
Oregon is a vote-by-mail pioneer.
Oregon used to regularly elect Republicans to the Senate, but they were moderate, if not liberal.
