As I look back over the last several years in Portland and Multnomah county, the decision that has had the most negative impact on all our lives, was choosing Jessica Vega Pederson over Sharon Meieran for County Chair. The complete incompetence and lack of accountability from our County Commissioners has and continues to be, a policy map of wrong turns, road blocks and just bad decisions. If you want to know why Portland lags behind every other West Coast City …look no farther than these commissioners.
Could not agree more. And let’s pile on here, electing both Meghan Moyer and especially, Shannon Singleton to the Multnomah County Board of Commissioners were two horrible choices. Two nonprofit, social services grifters who specialize in falling forward. Singleton has a documented history of failure as the director of JOHS, unless you count increasing homelessness exponentially as success.
I totally agree - when Peterson got the vote over Meieren (who was such an obvious better choice) I lost all faith that voters here actually research the candidates/topics or turn out to vote, even after seeing the outcomes of these idiotic policies. It was a slam dunk, as they say, and the populace here managed to blow it - as they continue to do in every election.
