@oregonducksmama He is not wrong that a Republican will win in November, he is wrong about who. It will be @Real_EdDiehl , he is neck and neck in the poll against Drazan, and Dudley is pulling up the rear. We don't need a rebounder, we don't need a re-play, we need a winner.

‼️Listen to this… Is he wrong?! 🤔🤔

The final chapter in a year-long fight over potholes, accountability, signatures, and Salem’s favorite pastime: asking working Oregonians for more money before proving they can manage what they already have. bensviewpoint.substack.com/p/36-hours-to-…

@PDXReal1 Love it, here is mine, Everything's Fine youtu.be/TXsrx8pTh6I?si…

Gotta love it!

@atensnut Oh she will lose but to @Real_EdDiehl

OMG!! Would be awesome to kick Tina Kotek’s butt out of office.

@Real_EdDiehl Let's close the gap, hammer down! Petal to the metal!

Feeling the momentum at the Scio Car Show!

@PDXReal1 @pdxrw @Peoples_Pundit That is not what the most recent Predict Oregon poll was a poll not an online survey. They called more than 600 registered Republicans, shared the questions, the crosstabs, the whole thing. I have the report, and can send it to you. @bensviewpoint/note/p-196694044?r=dhbex" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">substack.com/@bensviewpoint…

It wasn’t a poll. It was a survey. Polling is questions posed in a randomized manner to individuals within a community. When you drive certain people to a website and ask them to fill out a questionnaire, that invites an incredible amount of bias. From what I’ve seen, these numbers don’t reflect reality. And I’m not indicating who I think personally is my choice. I still haven’t decided.

I wouldn’t put much stock in the recent “poll,” which isn’t a poll at all, but rather a survey. Plus, we should all know by now that polling has proven to be less and less reliable. In other words, vote for the candidate whom 1) you feel will do the best job, and 2) who has the best chance to win against Kotek. After all, this state’s life, and your future, depends upon it.

New poll reveals Oregon’s Republican gubernatorial primary tightening dramatically in the final days, as Ed Diehl campaign gains incredible momentum. We are calling on all Diehl supporters to get their ballots in! Call or text five friends and remind them to vote. Let’s take back our Oregon!

“Having worked with David over the last several years, he's proved that he is a skilled legislator and thoughtful conservative. We need his voice in Washington,” Representative Boshart Davis. I sincerely appreciate the support and endorsement of Representative Shelly Boshart Davis for my candidacy to retire Senator Merkley. Representative Boshart Davis is a powerhouse and we have done a lot together, including battling and stopping Kotek’s Cap & Trade scheme. It has been a privilege to serve Oregonians with her, and I look forward to our continued work together from D.C.. I humbly ask for your vote. We have the team, plan and path to not only beat Merkley, but help our Republican Governor nominee, and our Republican State House and Senate candidates. We need a strong candidate on the top of the ballot that can work with our Republican candidates across the state, and I have the experience, relationships and ability to fund raise to get this done for Oregon. This is one of the many reasons why we have the support of our Republican Elected Leaders from across Oregon. Please see the links below for more information. Thank you for your support and together, we will build a better Oregon, and a stronger, safer, more prosperous Nation. oregoncatalyst.com/96331-taxpayer… davidbrocksmithfororegon.com/copy-of-meet-d… oregon.lifevote.net/?doing_wp_cron… oregonlegislature.gov/smithd/Pages/n… @davidbrocksmith" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">youtube.com/@davidbrocksmi…

"We have all heard the excuses: "My vote does not matter. The system is rigged. They already picked the winner. I forgot. I was busy.” Fine...But if a ballot is sitting in your house & you do not use it, the system did not silence you. You volunteered for mute." —Ben Roche

bensviewpoint.substack.com/p/the-ballot-o… Oregon’s governor race may be tighter than the insiders want to admit. Add the transportation tax fight and this primary is down to the few yet undecided. Have your say. Drop your ballot by 8 p.m. Tuesday, May 19. @Real_EdDiehl @ChristineDrazan

@CustomHester Be careful what you wish for..we don't want Ranked Choice Voting, we don't want open primaries where that Union money can prop up Manchurian candidates in jungle primaries for the opposition.

My next Oregon Roundup column will be on the flaws of Oregon's primary system. Too few people get to vote and too few races are contested. Usually, where there is a contest it's because unions are trying to unseat someone who wasn't adequately subservient. oregonlive.com/politics/2026/…

Sleazy, anonymous texts are hitting Republican phones across Oregon. They don’t say who paid for it. They don’t say who authorized it. That's a violation of Oregon election law. The latest illegal text included more lies about Ed. To set the record straight: ✅ Ed Diehl wrote the petition that stopped Tina Kotek's $4.3 billion tax increase. ✅ Ed Diehl founded No Tax Oregon. ✅ Ed Diehl led more than 2,000 volunteers to gather 250,000 signatures in just 38 days. ✅ Ed Diehl stopped the largest tax hike in Oregon history. So why would somebody spend real money on a fake, anonymous, illegal attack eight days out from a primary? Because we are in the lead. And they know it. There is only one leading Republican in this race without a record of losing statewide elections. That candidate is Ed Diehl. The others have already run statewide. The others have already lost. Oregonians know how that movie ends in November. So does the establishment. So they're doing what the establishment always does when they're losing: clinging to power with the only tools they have left: Anonymous texts. Recycled smears. And the hope that you’re too dumb to notice. We have eight days. They have consultants and lawyers. We have you. Chip in $10, $20, or $50 right now. Every dollar goes straight to reaching more Republican voters with the truth: Ed Diehl is the principled, proven leader who actually beats Tina Kotek instead of losing to her. The establishment wants Oregon Republicans scared and quiet. Let's show them what we do when somebody breaks the law to silence a winning campaign. Our movement will NOT be stopped. Let's win Oregon, together. - Mark Campbell Campaign Manager Ed Diehl for Oregon P.S. We are reviewing every legal option on the illegal texts. Those who sent it should hire a good lawyer. In the meantime, the best response is an even louder Ed Diehl campaign. Chip in here: EdDiehl.com/donate

It seems extreme to say Oregon is at the epicenter of a low-grade Marxist revolution visiting violence, assas*ination attempts in the name of overthrowing capitalism. But I don't know what else to call it. Dems need to stop giving the revolutionaries political cover.

Looks legit.
