The ballot has a page for county party candidates for precinct committeeperson. Yes, that is a word on the ballot. Oregon is very inclusive.
There are 33 openings. All but 5 are write-in. None of the 5 are familiar to me. I can't write-in anyone as a surprise (Surprise! You get to go to meetings!) because they'd have to file SEL 105D by 8PM on the 19th, and get 3 votes. For write-in candidates with zero information about them (or the rest, for that matter), that seems unlikely. Not the best way to collect party committeepersons, imho.
Darn.
5 potential committeepersons want to do this? Okay, I'll vote for you. If any are Republicans in disguise, I'll haunt your dreams.

I got my ballot.
The only Democratic candidate for governor to submit their info for the booklet appears to be Governor Kotek. The other 9 Democrats on the ballot apparently said, "Nah, really, vote for Tina." All declined. There are 14 Republicans in opposition. The one with the most name recognition might be Christine Drazan. I just felt a sudden chill.
The first candidate whose glossy PR has arrived in my mailbox is a candidate for a county judge position, Laura Rowan. A nice pitch, a familiar framing of a candidate in this area, and she has some solid endorsements. The early bird.

Abigail Scott Duniway (1834–1915) was an American women's rights advocate, newspaper editor and writer, whose efforts were instrumental in gaining voting rights for women in the United States. In 1871, she founded The New Northwest, a weekly newspaper devoted to women's rights, including women's suffrage. In 1912, Oregon became th...

The relocated #MultnomahCounty Library's Northwest branch is going to open up this weekend with two days of events.
Looking at the two small photos, they've opted to expose portions of the concrete floor and seal it, which is always a fun thing to do with old warehouses. Lots of different options for seating. Too bad they don't have a coffee shop attached to it.
Will have to check it out on Monday of next week...don't like crowds.

In retrospect, it might not have been the best idea to tie the funding of #homeless services to income in #MultnomahCounty, since while the economy craters, money coming in will dive just as the need soars.

Yay, they have an opening date for the northwest branch of the #MultnomahCounty library: January 10, 2026. Not sure I'm going there over that weekend; too busy with in-library events.
This is going to be an amazing location. It's just 2 blocks from the #PDX Streetcar stop, 2 blocks away from New Seasons, and across the street a future park.

Multnomah County just sent out an emergency alert to cellphones. I have received their warbling alert o' text.

6th time being summoned for jury duty, 6th time being dismissed before actually, you know, jurying anything.
🤷♀️
This time was extra surprising. The _entire_ jury pool was excused without a single name being called, for both today and tomorrow.
Are there really no trials happening in #MultnomahCounty that need jurors?

In a letter to #Homan, who serves as executive associate director of enforcement and removal operations (aka 'Border Czar'), #Wyden said the town hall would allow the administration official to hear directly from #Oregonians about #immigration policy.
"I would certainly welcome your participation at my next #MultnomahCounty town hall, which I am working to schedule next month, so you can hear directly from Oregonians."

Multnomah County warming centers will be open again tonight as the nighttime freezing temperatures are not forecast to let up. Portland's nighttime temperature is predicted to bottom out at 24F.

I knew #reddit is devouring more and more relevance in search results, but I'm still surprised that it is the most informative place to go for detailed #election information about "East Multnomah Soil & Water Conservation District Director, At-Large, Position 1".

Fantastic how #MultnomahCounty adopted a mission statement that is basically a promotion of #DEI values (while rewording things slightly to avoid the dreaded acronym).

However, I wish they could have done it without spending $250,000.

Multnomah County in den #USA verklagt große Öl- und Gasunternehmen wegen ihrer Rolle bei der #Hitzewelle 2021, die 69 Menschen das Leben kostete. Die Klage zielt auf #ExxonMobil, #Shell und #Chevron ab und behauptet, diese hätten bewusst die Risiken des #Klimawandels verharmlost. Die Klage könnte ein Präzedenzfall sein, indem sie spezifische #Gesundheitskosten durch extreme #Hitze thematisiert.

The county sent me an email to let me know my ballot for the upcoming May election is in the mail. I already have the booklet. I will have days to complete the ballot and return it, either through the mail, or at a drop box. My signature will be on the outside of the envelope. If it doesn't match, there will be further steps to verify identity before my ballot is counted. This is how you do it.

Got to the #MultnomahCounty courthouse in time to see the sun rise, but not early enough to get a sweet chair and table. Got a front seat view of the sunrise though. #PDX

Oh, crap. Eddy Morales is also running for the open congressional seat. Jayapal or Morales? Both would be great for the area. Eddy lost a tight race for Gresham mayor. He's a good campaigner with a solid base.
