Was he born in USA?

Except, he hasn’t lived in Oregon for THREE years in order to run.

After seeing he worked for the New York Times I would’ve sworn he would run as a republican.

Dems! Oh hell no. 👎

Race coupon wins many elections.

This will be interesting.

A columnist with a track record similar to President Let’s go Brandon should be a perfect fit as governor in OR

Saying he is running as a Dem after stating his affiliation with the NYT is redundant.

Um, what?

We don't need more people who have no idea what they're doing and are just running off their popularity. Zero qualifications...

We didn’t need the clarification on political affiliation twice.
