OR GOV: Effort to Recall Kate Brown Fails Due to Lack of Signatures

[Calthrina950]

Yah Trump did really hurt the OR GOP in 2018 and it quite possible Knute wins in 2018 if Hillary was President instead of Trump . The OR GOP though is in way worse shape than it should and much of that is due to how massively incompetent they are.


I mean this is a party who ran a guy who was famous for this as their candidate in 2010:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ICBi-ku-G0

They should have nominated Allen Alley instead and they probably win in 2010.


The OR GOP should not have lost the ground in Washington County that they have, but the fact is they did.

Oregon's gubernatorial elections have all been close in this century, and not once have Republicans been able to take advantage of it. And it's a shame, because according to Morning Consult, Brown is the third most unpopular governor in the country, with only Raimondo and Bevin being more disliked than her.

Problem is OR GOP is never ever United , when we nominate moderates , the right wing in the party get super mad and refuse to unite behind the candidate because of his position on x,y,z . Same is true visa versa


So Oregon gop never ever enters any state wide race united which makes it easy for Dems to stream roll the Republicans

And this same problem is not unique to Oregon alone. It's a miracle as it is that Baker, Hogan, and Scott are the Governors of their states, considering how strongly conservative the Republican base has become. Baker, for example, faced a Trump supporter in the primary last year, who managed to garner approximately one-third of the vote. And Warren's Republican opponent, of course, was a Trump supporter.

A major difference though is OR is far far more rural than MA, or MD and it’s not just any time of rural but Western Rural as well which makes those areas very right wing .

Certainly true, but Maryland's rural areas are solidly Republican as well.
