How Portland’s campaigns have changed, plus the ballot box fires

The Portland area found itself in the national spotlight this week for a not particularly flattering reason: Repeated arson attacks on ballot boxes. We’ll be going over what we know about those attacks, but first we’re going to take a close look at the many races this year for a spot in Portland City Hall. A massive governance shift approved by voters two years ago has upended how campaigning for city council and mayor works – with some pretty interesting results.

Important, informed reporting. Your conversations will improve when everyone dumps the lazy lingo: “Pretty much,” “you know,” “right?” Be clear, crisp, concise.
