Ballots For Oregon Vote-By-Mail Primary Going Out

The Oregon Secretary of State's office has begun to mail ballots for the May 15 primary.  The ballots mailed Friday in the state's vote-by-mail elections
include races for attorney general, Congress and several seats in
the Legislature. Democratic voters will be choosing the state's attorney general in a contest between former U.S. Attorney Dwight Holton and former
judge Ellen Rosenblum. Republicans did not field a candidate.
     U.S. Rep. Peter DeFazio faces a challenge from the son of his
2010 opponent. Matthew Robinson says he's a conservative who's
running as a Democrat to have a shot at defeating DeFazio.
     A handful of incumbent state legislators are facing tough
challenges from within their own parties, including Democratic Rep.
Mike Schaufler of Happy Valley and Republican Sen. Chris Telfer of
Bend.
