Per her website:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>Governor Brown made the wrong decision when she chose a never-ending state of emergency and heavy-handed mandates. I opposed her mask and vaccine mandates and repeatedly urged her to repeal them. Oregonians understand how to make decisions for themselves and their families \u2013 they don\u2019t need their state government telling them how to live their life.<\/p>\n<p>Violent crime in Oregon is out of control, especially in Portland, which is experiencing an all-time high in murders. When police were being attacked, Kate Brown and Portland politicians ignored it. Under my administration, the days of treating police like criminals and criminals like victims will end.<\/p>\n<p>I will support law enforcement, the overwhelming majority of whom do their jobs with courage and distinction, and I will increase funding for our state troopers. I will ensure that laws are being enforced fairly. And when Portland politicians refuse to stop the nightly riots and bring peace to the streets, as Governor, I will.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Drazan has also described herself as being pro-second amendment and pro-life.<\/p>\n<p>Republicans have not won a gubernatorial race in Oregon in 40 years.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A shocking new poll puts Republican Christine Drazan just slightly ahead of Democrat Tina Kotek in the Oregon governor\u2019s race.
