Give the gift of a better Oregon

Oregon Roundup is making a difference; you can help it do more

If you’re like me, you haven’t quite finished up Christmas shopping yet (or, in your case, it may be Hannukah shopping or maybe even, if highly unlikely, Kwanzaa).

Whatever your holiday preference, you can give the gift of a better Oregon really easily, right now, from your phone or laptop.

A better Oregon, you say? Yep, I don’t write that lightly. We have recent proof of concept for the impact Oregon Roundup can have on our beleaguered state in the forced resignation of Elections Director Molly Woon effective early January.

Woon, former deputy director of the Democratic Party of Oregon, had no business running an office that has to be nonpartisan. She behaved like a partisan idealogue while in office.

I’m as sure as I can be that Woon would not have resigned, under pressure from the incoming Secretary of State, without Oregon Roundup’s persistent and groundbreaking coverage of her role in letting the DPO off the hook for misreporting $500,000 it received from cryptocurrency fraud machine FTX, and overseeing the registration of noncitizens as voters.

When was the last time an Oregon government employee lost her job for being too ardent in her pursuit of Democratic electoral advantage? Yet, that is what happened with Woon. Oregon will have better, fairer election and campaign finance enforcement practices as a result.

You can help us do more of this kind of work with a few clicks. Here’s how:

If you’re not yet a paid subscriber, give a gift of a better Oregon by becoming a paid subscriber, right here.

If you’re already a paid subscriber, give a gift of a better Oregon by giving a gift subscription to someone (or someones) who would, or should, appreciate what we do here.

Or, you can make a tax-deductible donation to our nonprofit, Oregon Roundup Foundation.

Every penny we receive from any of those sources goes to producing more coverage to create a better Oregon, and distributing it more widely.

I appreciate your support!

Merry Christmas,
