I’ve put everything on the line because YOU are worth fighting for. All of Oregon is worth fighting for - even those who hate us. Thank you all for the unbelievable support you’ve shown this campaign. God is MOVING in this state. Ignore the phony polls and narratives. There is so much support. We are going to WIN if God wills it. VOTE for DAVID MEDINA by May 19th!
@PDXReal1 No way they many signed if they knew the full text of it. Wonder where the paid gatherers were collecting? And if anyone can share what they said? Ask before you sign any petitions, they should be able to give you the full text. And if the sheets are white they are volunteers
The fall of Portland, Oregon Here are major retailers that left Portland over declining conditions due to Democrat policies from 2022–2026 - Nike Community Factory Store (Operated since 1984, 40 years) Closed permanently because of 276 shoplifting reports in one year. They cited deteriorating public safety. Nike sent a letter to the mayor citing conditions - Walmart (Both Portland Locations) 580 employees laid off - Target (Three Stores) Reason: Explicitly cited organized retail crime and shoplifting - REI Reason: Highest break-in rate in two decades; over $800,000 spent on extra security in 2022 (including multiple incidents, one with a vehicle through the doors on Black Friday) - U.S. Bank (U.S. Bancorp Tower) Announced it would not renew its long-term lease Building Sale: Sold in July 2025 for $45 million (down from $372 million in 2015 — ~88% value decline). - Wells Fargo Announced plans to exit Portland - Starbucks Closed at least 5–6 Portland locations in September 2025 alone. - Nordstrom Rack (Downtown) - CVS Pharmacy (SW Broadway) Reason: Employee cited shoplifting as a factor Malls Major Retail Centers also closed Pioneer Place Mall: Once had roughly 100 stores. It’s now down to 20. Described as a “dead mall.” • Lloyd Center Mall: Confirmed for full demolition. Now 90% vacant PacWest Center: Sold October 2025 for $55.7 million (down from $170 million in 2016. That’s a 67% drop) - Montgomery Park: Sold August 2024 for $33 million (down from $255 million in 2019, that’s a 87% drop)
Tonight, @ChristineDrazan @Dudley4Oregon and @Real_EdDiehl will once again take the stage for a debate. Will they finally stand up against Trump and his disastrous policies, or will they continue to stay silent on his MAGA agenda that’s hurting Oregonians?
Its not a valid poll unless participants were randomly selected? Where they? You say the sample size was 2500. What was the R value (the margin of error). Were people from Vancoucer excluded? Without a random sample orf oregonians, its just a pre-selected groups opinion, probably largely from the Portland MSA and grossly invalid.
@PDXReal1 Because she CAN’T win! We have been through this.
Angela Todd started PDX Real after seeing problems in her own neighborhood, and realizing most people don’t know who is actually responsible. That matters. If Oregonians want change, they need more than frustration. They need knowledge, and the courage to ask who is accountable.
