Is it possible? Can Oregon swing back to the Republicans? Kerry McQuisten, candidate for Oregon governor, says she thinks the opportunity is real. “The last two years have been very key in opening eyes. Rural Oregon [has] felt disenfranchised for years and years… and if there’s no one coming on to that ballot to represent rural Oregon, they sit on their ballot…. But this time we have someone who’s grassroots coming in from rural Oregon… and it’s changing the entire landscape of this election.”
