Oregon ballots can be confusing and crowded. This guide lists only candidates who have opponents on the ballot, and only those who have at least one union endorsing them. Candidates are listed in the order you’ll find them on the ballot. It’s too late to register to vote or change party affiliation. Ballots are being mailed today and are due back May 19.
You’ll see that unions often didn’t agree: In many races, more than one candidate got support from at least one union.
Following each name is a list of union endorsers and a link to the campaign web site, if they have one. [All acronyms are listed in the legend below.]
Oregon’s primary election serves two functions:
- 1) It’s a party primary to determine who the Democratic and Republican nominees will be in November for all federal and state-level offices. In these races, the top vote-getter becomes the party’s nominee in the November general election. Only voters who are registered in that party get to decide who the party will nominate. Minor parties determine their nominees through other methods.
- 2) It’s also a winnowing-out primary for all judicial, district attorney, city, county, school board, and other local offices, which are non-partisan under Oregon law. If no candidate gets more than 50% in these races, the top two vote-getters battle it out in the November general election.
Below are union recommendations for contested races in the Democratic primary for federal, state-wide and legislative seats, followed by Non-Partisan races.
Why don’t we list Republicans?
For generations, unions have prided themselves on maintaining independence from the two major political parties. That stance is even baked into the names of some union political committees, like the Machinists Non-Partisan Political League or the Teamsters’ Democrat Republican Independent Voter Education (DRIVE) committee.
Sadly, one party is increasingly hostile to unions altogether. It didn’t used to be that way, but today’s Republican candidates don’t ask for—and don’t want—endorsements from unions.
Two years ago, Oregon Teamsters sent an endorsement letter and $500 to a Republican legislative candidate. The candidate sent it back, saying it could hurt him with Republican voters.
We’re aware of only one union-endorsed Oregon Republican in this year’s primary: Restaurant owner Justin Hwang, running for Oregon Senate District 25 in East Multnomah County, is endorsed by the Oregon Building Trades Council. We don’t include him in the guide because he’s unopposed for the Republican nomination, and we’re only listing candidates who have opposition.
DEMOCRATIC PRIMARY
U.S. Senate
Jeff Merkley is seeking a third six-year term. It would be hard to find a stronger labor ally than Merkley, who works harder than any other Oregon member of Congress to stay in touch with Oregon’s labor movement. The national AFL-CIO gives him a 99% lifetime voting record in Congress. AFL-CIO, AFT, UFCW Jeffmerkley.com
U.S. House of Representatives
Congressional District 1 (Portland/NW Oregon)
Suzanne Bonamici voted in 2015 to fast-track NAFTA-style trade deals, but other than that, she’s been a reliably pro-labor Democrat, and co-sponsored the PRO Act labor law reform bill. AFL-CIO, AFT, IAFF, IBT, IUPAT, OEA, ONA, SEIU, UFCW Bonamiciforcongress.com

Doyle Canning is a community organizer and environmental law grad who opposes the Jordan Cove pipeline terminal project and corporate influence in politics. AFT 3544 CanningForCongress.com
Congressional District 5 (Salem/Clackamas/Coast)
Mark Gamba, the mayor of Milwaukie, is challenging five-term incumbent Kurt Schrader, who has one of the worst labor records of any Democrat in the House. Not only has Schrader voted for every NAFTA-style trade treaty, but he voted to restrict unionization on Indian reservations, sponsored a bill to stop slowdowns by longshore workers, and has engaged in public carping against the national AFL-CIO. This February he was one of only seven Democrats to vote against a bill to make it easier to unionize and eliminate anti-union “right to work” laws. Half a dozen national unions have given a total of about $20,000 to Schrader in the last two years, but no local union appears to back him, and his campaign declined to list any union endorsers or provide a list of union endorsers to the Labor Press. With a $3 million campaign war chest full of contributions from business groups, Schrader may not feel he needs labor support. Meanwhile, Gamba is a well-liked mayor who helped build affordable housing and pass a $15-an-hour minimum wage for city employees. He’s a big advocate of Medicare for All and a Green New Deal.

Hi, Kelly, we’ve gone ahead and corrected that description. Thanks for pointing that out.
What about all the judges that are running. The current Federal Administration has pointed out how important electing “good” judges is and there is no information about the records of judges in Oregon.
Please send me a website for the voting records of judges in Oregon.
Most of them are running unopposed. The only one we’re aware of who’s not running unopposed and has a union endorsement is Rima Ghandour.
