Dear fellow Oregonian, It's a challenge to get people to vote. I don't know why, but that's a fact. As your Chief Elections Officer, I'm working hard to remove every obstacle I can to help you vote this fall. This year, we've made it easier than ever to cast your vote – and to know it gets counted. As part of the Help America Vote Act, we’ve implemented new tools to answer every question you can think of about voting: • What if you’re a college student, registered in your home district, but living on a campus in another county? • What if you have a physical disability that limits your movement or vision? How can you vote privately and independently? (Hint: it's possible now like never before.) • What if you're a soldier in the field? How do you get your ballot so far away? All of your questions are answered by a real, live Oregonian at our toll-free voter information line: 1-866-ORE-VOTES (1-866-673-8683) or through our TTY line for the hearing impaired at 1-866-350-0596. Elections representatives are available, Monday through Friday, 8:00 am to 5:00 pm – or you can log onto our website and look for your answers there anytime at www.oregonvotes.org. Remember: you have to return your ballot so it's received in your county elections office by 8:00 pm on Tuesday, November 7th. Our ability to vote in free, fair elections is one of the things that makes America great. Please take the time to read about the candidates in this pamphlet so that you can make informed choices. Then fill out your vote by mail ballot and return it to your county elections office by 8:00 pm on November 7th. I thank you for choosing to engage in our democracy by voting. Your participation is the foundation of Oregon’s future. Best wishes,

Occupation: Retired Information Technology Manager Occupational Background: Information technology man- ager - Department of Human Resources 1978-2000. Educational Background: Attended Portland State College 1961-63; Additional courses taken at Multnomah Junior College in Business Administration; Obtained a degree from Computer Careers Institute - 1973. Prior Governmental Experience: I am currently treasurer of the Libertarian Party of Washington County, Membership Director and a volunteer at the Libertarian Party of Oregon. Our problems will not be solved by the minds that created them – Albert Einstein. The government now takes 48% of the national income in fed- eral, state, and local taxes – U.S. Census Bureau. I for one, think that’s too much. Education – If education is the legislature’s top priority, as they say it is, then why don’t they fund it first? Because then they wouldn’t have enough money to fund their contributors pet projects. And, as happens every legislative session, they then proclaim another “crisis in our schools”. Public Safety - Next we should fund public safety. I know that the attorneys are going to be disappointed if we end the revolv- ing door of our justice system, but they are not typically the ones at risk. The only way you waste your vote is by casting if for someone you know will make government bigger. First look to yourself to provide what you need. Then look to your family, then your neighbors, and, as a last resort, look to government As a lifelong Oregonian, I believe that the current legislature has a real disconnect from the true will of the people.

Prior Governmental Experience: None Family: Wife Amy, daughters Zoe, Lucy. Oregon needs to invest in our neighborhood public schools to ensure our children have a world class education so they can compete in a global economy. Oregonians not only want first class schools, but they want schools to come first. Specifically, I want to reform Oregon’s high schools by: • Maximizing teachers’ instructional days to get a longer school year and reduce teacher burnout by easing their workload through flexible scheduling. • Adding “Communication Intensive” electives that focus on writing and speaking, in subject areas that will engage students’ passions. • Creating incentives for large school districts to digitally stream classes across Oregon so that all students can achieve their American Dream. • Offering public-private partnerships to allow certified teachers earn money, experience, and recertification through fellowships in the private sector rather than by paying tuition for classes. • Building a central online repository for syllabi, lesson plans, and curriculum to help teachers across Oregon collaborate. Oregon needs to reassess how government works. Well man- aged government should serve the people by working with their input and for their best interests. Oregon needs to remember its values while planning for the future. Our reputation as a friendly, open-minded, and environmentally conscious state needs to endure. Our natural resources and historical leadership in the environmental move- ment give us a comparative advantage and legacy to attract new industries that will be a large part of the 21st century: recycling technologies, renewable energy development and biofuels. Leading the development of these industries is a win for our environment and a cornerstone for a new Oregon economy. Please consider me, David Newell, for State Senate. www.newellfor19.com

I promised to eliminate a water user fee that was imposed on the citizens of Cornelius and the fee was replaced with a broad based revenue source created through citizen participation in the city’s budget committee. I will have the same open-door policy as your State Representative that I have had as Mayor. Stop Wasteful Spending Currently this state is suffering fiscally and I plan to focus on dealing with the structural problem of our government’s wasteful spending. Our state must learn to live within its budget the same way you and I do. Our state resources must be reevaluated to determine where our government is running inefficiently. We must tighten spending while maintaining vital community services. I’m asking for you to help me ensure we keep local control over local issues including spending policies, job creation and neighborhood safety. “Terry Rilling is a strong family man and a trusted leader. He has proven he has the experience to make a difference for the people of his district and for all of Oregon.” U.S. Senator Gordon Smith “Terry Rilling has been a strong member of our community for years. He truly believes in representing the values and princi- ples of his neighbors. I know I can trust him to work hard for our concerns.” – Cynthia O’Donnell, Hillsboro City Councilor

THE CONSTITUTION PARTY We are the party that is calling America back to the sure foundation of Life, Liberty, Limited Government. What our candidates stand for: Restore the United States to “One Nation Under God” Return to Constitutional, Limited Government Ending Abortion in America Defend Individual Right to Keep and Bear Arms Restore National Sovereignty Including Withdrawal from the U.N. Cut the Federal Government Down to Constitutional Size Find Our Lost Borders and Defend Them Protect Private Property In Absolute Terms Restore Constitutional Sound Money Backed By Gold End Corporate Welfare And the Export of American Jobs Require Congressional Declaration of War Before Engaging Our Military Congressional Limitations on Jurisdiction Of Federal Courts We are often asked, “Why not reform the two big parties?” It may be hard to admit but an honest appraisal shows that both parties are corrupt, addicted to ‘big money’, with no intention of ever returning to limited Constitutional government that puts the peo- ple’s freedom first. What do you think will be the result of letting our government continue to make up its own rules? The horror of legalized baby killing is one result. Can you think of other social and economic degradations that runaway government has brought us? DECLARE YOUR INDEPENDENCE!!! DON’T WASTE YOUR VOTE!!! Send a real message this year. Vote for what you want instead of some compromised down version of our American ideals. This citizenship business is not a game. It is a stewardship for which we will be held accountable by our Creator and our children’s children. If you are tired of seeing America on a down-hill slide morally and economically, If you question the long term consequences of a worldwide American empire, If you are weary of a government that tries to be god while it mocks the true God, Then consider Our Constitution Party candidates. They are pledged to the platform listed above. In office they are each committed to: -vote no on budgets that include taxpayer $$$ for abortion -institute spending limits and individual efficiency audits for state programs -return authority to local school boards and parents -returning illegal aliens to the country they came from -end the practice of exporting American jobs William Shakespeare said that, “Our doubts are traitors, and make us lose the good we oft might win, by fearing to attempt.” VOTE CONSTITUTION PARTY THIS YEAR Constitutionpartyoregon.org

Official 2006 General Election Voters’ Pamphlet 36 | General Information Democratic Party Statement

The Democratic Party: Leadership For Oregon, A New Direction For America Elections are about accountability. This November the choice for our country couldn’t be more clear or important. We can unite behind Democrats to restore America’s strength and prosperity. Or we can stay the course and allow George W. Bush’s dangerous agenda to go unchecked for two more years. No one is well served when the truth and good ideas become regular victims of blind partisanship and deception. Yet, that’s exactly what’s happening in Washington and during 16 years of Republican control of the Oregon House. The time has come to take a stand. The policies of George W. Bush and rubber stamp Republicans across the country like Ron Saxton and Oregon Speaker Karen Minnis are destroying our great democracy. Drunk with power, Republicans have governed with an arrogance that is outdone only by their catastrophic failures. The costly occupation in Iraq, the shameless neglect of Katrina victims and Oregon kids being forced into increasingly crowded classrooms are not random accidents. Worse, they’re the direct result of a deeply flawed and morally bankrupt right wing ideology that has hijacked today’s Republican Party. Don’t let them get away with it any longer. You have the power to restore progress and common sense priorities by voting Democratic this November. It’s time to come together. Democrats know that, as Oregonians, our shared values are far greater than our differences. There is no challenge facing our state or nation that is too great to overcome when we work together. Democratic values are Oregon values. We cherish our natural environment that makes living in Oregon special and we share a commitment to quality schools, safe communities, and good paying jobs. Together, we can launch a new era of leadership that rekindles Oregon’s spirit of innovation and restores America’s reputation in the world. The Democratic Vision Strong Schools For Our Children Every child deserves a full opportunity for success that is not threatened by overcrowded classrooms, shortened school years or administrative waste. Real Security Defeating terrorism starts with telling the truth to our citizens, troops and allies. Oregon Democrats in Congress opposed Bush’s war in Iraq from the outset and will continue to demand accountability until our brave troops are home. Energy Independence We will invest to make Oregon a leader in renewable energy and we will create a cleaner, stronger America by reducing our dependence on Middle East oil. Economic Prosperity Democrats will restore fairness by making big corporations pay their fair share and rebuild our middle class economically. We will create good Oregon jobs by promoting small businesses, sustainable industries and continuing to improve our transportation infrastructure. A Health Care System That Works For Everyone We will catch up to 36 other industrialized nations by making sure that everyone has access to high quality, affordable health care. No family should have to worry if a child’s trip to the doctor will push them to the brink of bankruptcy, and no Oregonian should ever have to choose between buying medicine and paying rent. Retirement Security We will ensure that a retirement with dignity is the right of every American. We will block Republican schemes to dismantle Social Security and Medicare, and we will promote laws to protect pensions and encourage financial independence. 2006 Ballot Initiative Positions You have important decisions to make about initiatives appearing on this year’s ballot. Many times, these sound simple, but have tremendous consequences. We hope you will consider your vote carefully on each of these initiatives. The Democratic Party of Oregon has taken the following positions: • Measure 40: OPPOSE • Measure 41: OPPOSE • Measure 43: OPPOSE • Measure 44: SUPPORT • Measure 47: OPPOSE • Measure 48: OPPOSE To get involved or for additional information about these and other ballot initiatives, please visit our website at www.oregondemocrats.org or phone (503) 224-8200.

Official 2006 General Election Voters’ Pamphlet 37 | General Information Libertarian Party Statement

TIME FOR SOMETHING NEW. VOTE LIBERTARIAN. www.lporegon.org We are Oregon’s third largest political party, with about 16,000 members. At the local level, Libertarians win about two- thirds of the races they enter. Libertarians serve in public office throughout Oregon as members of your school boards, water boards, city councils, planning commissions and similar bodies. Libertarians in government consistently vote to maximize your freedoms, protect your rights, and minimize the intrusion of government into your lives. Are you tired of voting for the lesser of two evils? Then stop doing it. Republicans and Democrats have convinced millions of average citizens that they are are powerless to take control over their communities. That’s why many people don’t vote. Don’t Buy the Lie. You and your neighbors have real political power. If you want a different world, start voting differently. This year, don’t waste your vote on Republican and Democratic candidates. Their ideas and politics got us into our cur- rent mess and can’t get us out. If you always do what you’ve always done, you’ll always get what you’ve always had. We offer this guide to voters concerning this year’s ballot measures: MEASURE 48: YES Sustainability is good for the economy just as it is for the environment. In the long run, it is impossible to sustain spending growth that exceeds population and inflation. Without Measure 48 there will be no “Rainy Day Fund” and people will become dependent on government services, only to lose them during lean times. In the long run, a YES vote is the compassionate choice. MEASURE 45: YES Are you satisfied with the leadership our “experienced” legislators are providing? Service in a citizen legislature was never meant to become a career, and incumbents have written laws making it difficult for challengers to mount strong challenges. Term limits will return the legislature to the citizens and wrest control from the lobbyists. MEASURE 39: YES Government should never be allowed to seize your home in order to give it to a developer who promises to generate more tax revenue. This is legalized theft. MEASURE 46: YES The current system of regulating elections and election finances is designed to protect incumbents. The laws are so complicated that it is difficult and financially perilous for political challengers and citizen groups to seriously challenge an incumbent. This measure will make it hard for them to make the problem worse. MEASURE 41: YES Your taxes will go down, and your taxes will be computed more fairly. MEASURE 42: NO If insurance companies can establish a link between risk and any legal criteria, they have the right to price their products accordingly. Stacking the deck against insurance companies will only drive them away, leaving people with fewer companies who will have more control over the market - that’s a REAL formula for high prices! MEASURE 44: NO People complain about pharmaceutical companies, but they sure like their medications. By opening the Prescription Drug Program to all, we effectively place a tax on pharmaceutical companies. Such companies may seem little more to us than faceless corporate targets for populist rage, but they are the ones who invent the drugs we need. It makes little sense to erode financial incentives to create new and more effective medications. MEASURE 47: NO Reporting requirements on political campaigns are supposed to provide legal transparency. Instead, they create fear. Too often, individuals and groups with something to lose are afraid to contribute to political challengers for fear of antagonizing incumbents. What kind of democracy is that? Such regulations have a chilling effect on the democratic process. Restricting the ability of candidates to project their messages isn’t the answer either. Big money doesn’t always win, and voters have the ability to think for themselves. It is ironic that some who claim to treasure democracy place so little trust in the voters.

Official 2006 General Election Voters’ Pamphlet 38 | General Information Pacific Green Party Statement

Live Green? Vote Green. Our world is in peril from war, greed, corruption, pollution and fear. We must do better. While Democrats and Republicans bicker, and our planet grows sicker, Greens are creating change in communities across the country. We are growing. There are 11 Green elected officials here in Oregon and more than 200 nationwide. Green change is possible with your vote. Don’t let the other parties fool you into believing that you don’t have better choices. We can have a country where our children can grow up healthy and strong. They will learn in schools that are rich in resources and opportunity. We can have honorable elected officials. Don’t settle for less. Vote for people who reflect your values. Peace now Join us to help bring peace to our war-torn world. If we elect leaders who have peace in their hearts, then we can peacefully resolve conflicts at home and abroad. Greens oppose wars waged for oil and profits. Our position is clear: stop the wars and bloodshed in Iraq and elsewhere. Never torture prisoners or anyone else. Bring our troops home now. Shame on Democrats and Republicans for so recklessly sending our children to war. Protect our planet Global warming is a disaster we must stop now. Renewable energy, clean air and water are our priorities. We must safeguard our natural heritage and beautiful landscapes from the timber, mining and ranching industries. Why do Democrats and Republicans do so little to protect the environment? They are corrupt. In exchange for big campaign contri- butions, they do the bidding of big business. Greens believe that conservation and preservation of nature are more important than corporate profits. Build our economy by helping working families Our first economic priority is to raise the minimum wage to $9 for all workers. By guaranteeing a living wage to workers, we will bring them hope. We will make sure that working families can meet basic needs like food and housing. Our second priority is to expand workers’ rights to organize, bargain and strike. Democrats and Republicans rarely put the needs of working families first. They are too dependent on corporate contributions. Greens are not for sale. We won’t sell out because we are from working families like yours. Health care for all Every Oregonian should have access to quality health care. Health care is a right, not a privilege for the rich. We will stop pharmaceutical companies from ripping us off. We will end the mess that insurance companies and HMOs create when we need medical care. We will not compromise our principles like most politicians. Make big corporations pay their fair share Greens have the courage to look big business in the eye and demand they pay their fair share of taxes. Why? Unlike the other par- ties, we don’t take corporate contributions and perks. It’s time to end corporate welfare for the largest businesses. They ought to pay more so that we can have better schools, health care and environmental protection. And it’s time to get big money out of politics. The Pacific Green Party is pledged to endorse and work for Campaign Finance Reform Measures 46 and 47. Excellent education Our children deserve the best schools in the country. Those of us who love children know that there is no time to waste. Schools must be restructured so that our children receive the attention and care they deserve. We need to focus less on test scores and more on true learning and understanding. We must give teachers the right equipment and resources to do their jobs well. Let’s face it: money won’t solve our education crisis, but it will help us make sure that our school buildings are safe, children have the books and supplies they need to learn, and our school employees are paid what they deserve. Join us. Vote Green. www.pacificgreens.org
