Really interesting to see homelessness and public safety in the top tier of concerns yet education and mental health are in the lower end of the spectrum, which in my opinion have a direct correlation to the problems we are facing in the former, in Oregon and beyond.
The "biggest problems facing X" polling questions have their limitations. I wouldn't assume that voters don't think that addiction, for example, is an upstream issue contributing to homelessness, etc. It's just not the first thing that comes to mind because the problem of homelessness is more visible.
I can’t help but laugh when I see the number of people running for Governor. I may of heard of one or two but that’s it. I don’t see much change coming no matter who or what.
I would really love to believe Oregon could go red but I just don’t see it happening. Even though we moved out of there last summer, I will always cheer on my home state.
surely MORE Oregonians are feeling the sad way Brown has governed.
60% strongly disapprove is the biggest number I've seen for any elected official, ever. I think voters are feeling pretty sad.

We'll see. History suggests you're probably right, Jim.

I don't think it will go red, per se. It's likely to go quite a bit more purple, though.
