    2of 2 Voters’ Pamphlet Candidates Oregon General Election November 4, 2008 Bill Bradbury Oregon Secretary of State This Voters’ Pamphlet is provided for assistance in casting your vote by mail ballot. OFFICE OF THE SECRETARY OF STATE ELECTIONS DIVISION BILL BRADBURY JOHN LINDBACK DIRECTOR SECRETARY OF STATE 255 CAPITOL ST NE, SUITE 501 JEAN STRAIGHT SALEM, OREGON 97310 DEPUTY SECRETARY OF STATE (503) 986-1518 My Fellow Oregonians: Once again, it’s time for Oregon voters to make good on the bargain we make for living in a free country. It’s time to vote. In these pages, you will see the candidates running for office this year. These are the words they’ve chosen to represent themselves to you. Read them carefully and evaluate what they have to say because the decisions made by our elected officials make a difference in our lives. Voting is only one of the duties we share in preserving our blessings of liberty. We serve on juries. We pay our taxes. We serve in the armed forces. We don’t litter. And we vote. Voting is no mere footnote to democracy. It’s what separates us from tyrants, a practice we’ve nurtured and encouraged for more than two centuries and preserve today as a bulwark in keeping our country safe and free. It’s already been an exciting year. In the spring, Oregon saw a huge surge in voter registration and we may well set new records in November for turnout. Registering, remember, is only half the process and doesn’t mean a lot unless you actually vote.

Everything we've accomplished since can be traced to our opportunity to earn college degrees. We know through personal experience that education is synonymou with oppor­ tunity, and the quality of education determine the quality of life in our state. After graduation, career paths opened up to us. Marilyn worked for First Interstate Bank (now Wells Fargo) for 22 years. The bank encouraged continuing education and assisted her in earning a master' degree, which opened the doors to teaching part time at Portland Community College. Marilyn's experience speaks to the changing oppor­ tunities for women in education and business. She was the only woman in most of her business courses in the early '70s. Today, the gender ba lance in busi­ ne s courses at PSU is at lea t 50-50, and Portland tate students are increasingly diverse in other ways as well.
