Voters of Oregon House District 40 have spoken, and we respect and trust the democratic process.
The concerns raised during this campaign — and the perspectives of those who supported it — do not simply disappear because an election ends. Many people in our communities still feel unheard, unseen, or left at the edges of public life. The Democrats stand united in their core values, values that the majority share.
Michael Sugar is a bright young man, ran a great campaign and I believe he can succeed in building the bridges he spoke about throughout this campaign. I’m confident he’ll find ways to bring the voices of those living on the margins into the center of the conversation and into the work of governing. I called him and conceded. I told him he has my support and I hope that those who were with me through this campaign can lean in too.
Thank you to every person who volunteered, donated, encouraged, debated, questioned, and voted.

I was recently invited to a lego meet up. It was a ton of fun! I couldn’t remember the last time I’d built something with legos. Can you? Thank you so much Yellow Castle Bricks for creating this fun space in Oregon City
