OR Secretary of State Tobias Read has now refused to investigate nine election complaints in cases that are damaging to DSA candidates. Noemi Legaspi lied in the voter pamphlet about her opponent Lesly Muñoz hiring a convicted felon. Insane. Then there’s Chief Day’s statements about Mitch Green:

The venn diagram of profiting from fossil fuels and profiting from the effect of fossil fuels is a circle 🫠 be careful of accepting pro bono offers but also it seems like a great time to strip these lobbyists of all social capital, be a shame if everyone knew about The Ferguson Group

The Ferguson Group is one among dozens of companies working both sides of the climate crisis, according to research by campaigners.

Ranked choice voting gave us true representation and Morillo’s voice is only “divisive” if your reference point is every council member owned by those profiting from the status quo. In my Portland, Morillo’s voice is the future 🔥

Hey Portland, here’s a “don’t rank” guide from “a group of Portlanders who spend our free time organizing in the community. For years we have worked on grassroots, pro-people campaigns: things like universal preschool, tenant protections, labor union campaigns, funding our schools, and more.”

Make sure our City Council represents the people of Portland — NOT police, developers, or other corporate villains.

Hey progressive PDX, is anyone seeing evidence of AIPAC funding in local or state races this year? Still mourning the missed opportunity for our own Rep Jayapal 😥 It seems like the secret money this round is mostly from PBA and its astroturf spinoffs

When considering the subject of the Clarklewis story, it seems newsdesks spent ten seconds weighing whether it should be a broken window, an employee's job status, or this. Thus far, @koin6.bsky.social , @oregonian.com and KGW are among the newsrooms that have opted against this option:

I think one of the most empowering and powerful parts of living thru this period of history is how people are seeing all of the connections that have always existed right under the surface. What has been hidden is being brought into the light. We see how far the web has been woven through society.

One takeaway from this for me is that the current council appearing "fractured" simply means we're now hearing from voters who just weren't heard before. 💥 Let's do all we can in the next few weeks to make the council EVEN MORE representative of the people 💪

Really interesting insights on our new election system: 💰 Spending was ⬇️, & big $$ didn't guarantee results! 🌈 The new council is more representative of the people 👍 Endorsements matter, & w/3 winners, endorsers didn't have to make trade-offs

The Councilors who desperately want to abdicate their legislative power to the Mayor in a system explicitly designed to give the Mayor more power in other ways - then not ask for more legislative power in return - ought to be made fun of.
