Ya, but Barry was the only one on the ballot on the Dem side. Sadly, it looks like Portland gets mayor "Streetcar) Charlie Hales, with Steve (Insecurity) Novick and Mary Nolan Goldschmidt on the city council.

On the plus side, Delinda Morgan beat the snake-like Lisa Michaels handily, so she'll face off against the wife of David Wu's lawyer in November.

How about Harney County! 25% write-ins.

Well, Lisa Murkowski is a fan. (Also of not backing the party's choice.) :-)
