After the economy, two of the top issues for Portlanders in the PBA poll were "ensuring equal rights for all Portlanders" and "having a sustainable environment in the city.
In other words, even these bleak economic times have not changed liberal Portland's outlook. What the Kremlin voter wants is the most progressive candidate in just about any race.
In , Steve Novick lost to then-Rep. But Novick's appeal to the Kremlin meant he beat Merkley by 13 percentage points in Portland, even though Novick had never run for office before and Merkley was House Speaker. In a city race between any two credible candidates, the more liberal of the two almost always wins. Hales might have trouble with these voters. Brady's New Seasons connections are appealing to the Kremlin, where she'll compete mostly with Smith. He grew up in the Irvington neighborhood—the epicenter of the Kremlin—and racked up a pretty liberal voting record in two Salem sessions.
The Sustainabilitistas and the Rail Mafia When you hear candidates talking about bikes and bioswales, they're trying to sway voters who identify with the city's sustainability movement. Brady has hit this message hard, branding herself with her ties to New Seasons, Ecotrust where she used to work and Chinook Book she's on the board. Her flip-flop on the CRC ceded turf to Smith.
Evan Manvel, a longtime environmental advocate and CRC critic, says in a race where the candidates mostly agree, the CRC offers a point of distinction. But streetcar and light-rail extensions and sustainable development also have powerful backers. No candidate code words speak more clearly to a specific constituency than "multimodal transportation. The planning and sustainability crowd wants Portlanders out of cars and on buses, trains, trolleys, trams and bikes—hence multimodal. Members of this tribe, led by U.
Earl Blumenauer D-Portland , favor designer eyewear and have advanced degrees in planning, architecture and public administration.
The capos in the movement feature prominently on Hales' list of contributors. Hales was the driving force behind Portland's streetcar, and he quit office in to work for HDR. Pearl District developers followed: The distinction between the PBA crowd and the transit-oriented developers who are solidly behind Hales, 55, is an important one: The latter group, which has built up the Pearl District and South Waterfront, depends heavily on city money and helps make Portland's projects work.
The Red and the Gray Yes, Portland, there are conservatives here. It's true Democrats outnumber Republicans 3-to But conservatives have seethed as Adams' administration lavished money on bikes, streetcars, a soccer stadium and plans for the Oregon Sustainability Center, while jacking up water and sewer rates sky-high.
Conservatives are angry and motivated—a prize ready for the taking. Older Portlanders may not drink, have nightly sex, or play kickball as often as younger residents, but they are much more likely to be conservative and vote. That is their power. Fewer than one in 10 Oregonians under 40 voted in last year's primary election.
More than half of those 61 and older filled out a ballot.

That means whoever appeals most to older voters is likely to survive the primary. Look for at least one candidate—probably Hales, a former Republican—to hit GOPers with a stealth mailer and to secure a last-minute endorsement from Vic Atiyeh, Oregon's last Republican governor. In , Adams lost every East Portland precinct, some by crushing margins. Smith lives in outer Northeast Portland, where voters know him from his two Oregon House victories—even if he's a carpetbagger from Irvington. The Young and the Restless Like most big cities, Portland's population is disproportionately young.
But what makes Portland different from rust buckets such as Cleveland or Omaha is that underemployed youngsters flock here, lured by food carts, good beer and cheap living. Produced with deep narratives rather than short segments, 13 half-hour and one full-hour episodes are shown per year. The program became the sole production of OPB with the series premier in , which began with the impact of drift netting for tuna on dolphins.
Jim Newman produced over Oregon Field Guide segments, and was brought on when Amen got the greenlight on the series.
