I voted early. I voted today. Nah, not on the official ballot; it hasn't arrived yet.
My phone has been ringing with political party volunteers calling to ask what I'll donate these past few days.
Sometimes it's not what you are willing to GIVE, but what you're willing to give-up or do without [or get rid of].
Not earth shaking like the quake in Hawaii I know, especially because I was merely a Sunday-Only subscriber that accepted an incentive subscription deal in the first place.
But I did pre-pay for the year. So I'll have the satisfaction of their having to send me a refund for the unused part. I'll know that someone in that building will read the reason. The guy who took my call claimed he was noting it anyway. Primarily because he expressed his own ... shall we say, "surprise" at his employer's .... shall we say, poor judgment.
But HEY ... The Oregonian has leaned right in something like 2-outta-3 of recent campaigns. I gave it a go for a few months. But, I only ever really perused the Ads and recycled it anyway.
As long as the Oregonian doesn't mistakenly blame the poor distributor. Coz, the distributor & carrier did a sterling job.
The Oregonian Newspaper along with all the out-of-state monies flowing to Saxton accomplished one thing with today's endorsement. It's helped me decide how to deal with all of those campaign volunteer callers asking for contributions.
Dear executives at the Oregonian Newspaper here's to you for your dumb-ass political endorsement of deceptive dufus, Ronnie Saxton for Gubbernor:

"Knowledge about government is power" --GovTrack
