For Oregon Democrats, some competitive congressional races spell trouble
Fox News
While Democrats currently control four out of the five U.S. House seats in Oregon, the party hopes to secure the state's newly created sixth one as well.
The most hotly contested race is in the 5th District, which stretches from Portland’s affluent southern suburbs to the central high desert city of Bend and includes the rural, mountainous areas in between.
Republican Lori Chavez-DeRemer, a businesswoman and former mayor of the Portland suburb of Happy Valley, is hoping to flip the district red for the first time in over two decades. The super PAC linked to House Republicans, the Congressional Leadership Fund, has spent more than $2.7 million on several ads there.
