Voters' Pamphlet Voters’ Pamphlet Oregon General Election November 2, 2010 Kate Brown 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 STEPHEN N. TROUT KATE BROWN DIRECTOR SECRETARY OF STATE 255 CAPITOL ST NE, SUITE 501 BARRY PACK SALEM, OREGON 97310 DEPUTY SECRETARY OF STATE (503) 986-1518 Dear Oregon Voters: As your Chief Elections Officer, my goal is to engage more Oregonians in the political process, provide more information to Oregonians and remove barriers to voting. Because of this, you will see a few changes in the Voters’ Pamphlet, receive a ballot that looks a little different and find answers to your questions, quite literally at your fingertips, by pointing your browser to www.oregonvotes.org. First, the ballot. The Oregon Legislature passed legislation in 2009 implementing a new process for political parties to nominate candidates. It’s called cross nomination and it allows candidates to receive the nomination of up to three parties and to have those nominations printed on the ballot. The purpose behind this change is to engage more voters on all ends of the political spectrum. Due to space restrictions on the ballot and the fact that candidates can receive up to three party nomi- nations, the party names will be abbreviated on the ballot. Every ballot will have a key to the party abbreviations. The parties are abbreviated as follows: Constitution Party – CON Democratic Party of Oregon – DEM Independent Party of Oregon – IND Libertarian Party of Oregon – LBT Nonaffiliated – NAV Pacific Green Party – PGP Oregon Progressive Party – PRO The Oregon Republican Party – REP Working Families Party of Oregon – WFP Second, the Voters’ Pamphlet. Another bill the Oregon Legislature passed created the Citizens’ Initiative Review. The process involves a panel of citizens coming together for a week to discuss the pros and cons of a proposed initiative. The panel then produces statements reflecting the opinions of the panelists to provide more information to Oregon voters. This Citizens’ Initiative Review process happened on two ballot measures this year. Those statements can be found on pages 51 and 62 of the Voters’ Pamphlet. Third, technology has provided us with the ability to provide you better service from the Elections Division. You can now track your ballot over the internet, just like an online purchase, by going to www.oregonvotes.org. On this site you can find out whether you are registered to vote, find information about the voting process, and after you have mailed your ballot, confirm that your county elections office actually received your ballot. Ballots to our servicemen and women are mailed 45 days prior to the election. If we have the correct email address for these personnel, we can provide a PDF version of the ballot. If you, or someone you know, needs this service, please don’t hesitate to call or email. It’s extremely important that those who have placed their lives on the line for our country be able to participate in the democratic process. We are facing some tough challenges in the years ahead. As your Chief Elections Officer, I encourage you to make sure that your voice is heard. Please register, and then vote, in this and every election. Your ballot must be received by a county elections office by 8pm on November 2. Postmarks do not count. If you have questions about registration, filling out your ballot or getting a replacement ballot if you make a mistake, do not hesitate to call our toll free hotline at 1-866-ORE-VOTE or visit our website at www.oregonvotes.org.

TROUT KATE BROWN DIRECTOR SECRETARY OF STATE 255 CAPITOL ST NE, SUITE 501 BARRY PACK SALEM, OREGON 97310 DEPUTY SECRETARY OF STATE (503) 986-1518 Dear Oregon Voters, As our nation and our state climb slowly out of an historic recession, the challenges we face remain great. This primary election provides the opportunity for all voters to decide on a variety of nonpartisan races and two statewide ballot measures. It also allows the two major parties to select their nominees for offices from the US Senate and Congress, to Governor and the state Legislature. You, the voters, are in the driver’s seat, making important choices about the future leaders of this state and country. As your Secretary of State, I write to urge you to register and VOTE. Now more than ever the voices of Oregonians must be heard. While we face the continuation of a grim economic climate, as families struggle to make ends meet, businesses work hard to remain competitive and our governments strive to meet increasing demands for public services, there is some good news to share. Oregon has made great strides to make it easy and convenient to register and vote. On March 1, 2010, we made it simpler, more efficient and more secure to register to vote through Oregon’s online voter registration system. You can register online if you have an Oregon driver’s license, state ID or driver’s permit.

  • The Effect of Tea Party Activity on the 2010 United States Senate Elections
    The Effect of Tea Party Activity on the 2010 United States Senate Elections Patricia Ceccarelli A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of BACHELOR OF ARTS WITH HONORS DEPARTMENT OF POLITICAL SCIENCE UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN March 25, 2011 Advised by Dr. Michael T. Heaney ABSTRACT The tea party movement began in early 2009 in reaction to the stimulus bill. Throughout 2009 local and national tea party groups formed and held rallies around the country. A Republican won Ted Kennedy’s Massachusetts U.S. Senate seat with the help of the tea party movement in early 2010. Several GOP establishment candidates lost their primaries to tea party candidates. So, what was the overall effect of tea party activity on the 2010 U.S. Senate elections? Did voter enthusiasm lead to more wins by Republican candidates? Or did the movement push the candidates too far to the right and prevent Republicans from winning? Each of the 37 U.S. Senate races were coded in terms of level of tea party activity, expected lean of the race, and percentage of the vote won by the GOP candidate. The level of tea party activity was based off of tea party movement related endorsements and campaign contributions received by each candidate. A regression analysis produced statistically significant results suggesting that states with high levels of tea party activity earned significantly lower vote shares for Republican candidates, after controlling for races leaning toward the Republican candidate. In order to further explain these results, nine case studies of different races explored the organizing at the grassroots level of the tea party movement.

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.
