Balloting Question 0

At the Portland Oregonian, Steve Duin wonders why anyone would support keeping Democrats in power in state and local elections, given what he sees as a poor track record*. He comes to a disturbing conclusion.

Why reward the party in power by passing the torch to Democrat (candidate for governor–ed.) Tina Kotek, the long-time speaker of the Oregon House?

Perhaps because Republicans, nationally, are a menace.

Follow the link for his reasoning.

My uninformed opinion is that, however poor the Democrats’ track record might be, the Republicans’ would certainly be worse.

Finally, this is website is a hobby.
