| Description | The withdrawal of the Pacific Green and Progressive Party candidate is expected to give some political latitude to Tina Kotek, the Democratic and Working Families nominee for governor.
Nathalie Paravicini said in a statement that a major aim of her candidacy was fulfilled by Kotek's web posting of details for state campaign finance. Oregon is among a handful of states with no limits on contributions or spending.
Paravicini said:
"Winning an election is not only about getting elected but also about raising alternative solutions and changing the debate. That objective was advanced when Tina Kotek made specific public commitments to prioritize campaign finance reform.
"The key factor in my decision (to withdraw) is that a candidate in the race is now committed publicly on her website to real campaign finance reform in Oregon." |
