Tobias Read has yet to receive any endorsements from women's / lgbt / workers groups. His fundraising is meh once you exclude out of state companies seeking to influence the treasury. The debates will not be helpful if he continues to dodge each and every hard question about the treasury. Patrick Starnes may be drawing even with Read. That is why we need a good DHM poll to see if this is a three person race, or just Read beting crushed by Kotek.

A greater disservice is only having two people debate when you have 16 candidates in the race. While I do not expect all 16 on one stage there should be more than two included @no1leftoffline https://newsoforegon.com/getting-to-know-oregon-gubernatorial-candidate-michael-trimble/

I really hope your wrong about one of them being Governor. From what I have seen over the years Betsy Johnson is the moderate Oregon desperately needs. She is the only one that can bring moderation to the state and stop the bad one sided partisan bills being forced on the state.
