Progressive Jamie McLeod-Skinn defeats Schrader in OR primary, jeopardizes party's chances of holding seat
Fox News
Progressive Jamie McLeod-Skinner's May primary defeat of Democratic Oregon Rep. Kurt Schrader has led to an unusually competitive race in the Democrat-favored district.
As Election Day approaches, national political analysts are pegging the race between McLeod-Skinner and Republican Lori Chavez-DeRemer as a toss-up. The election of either candidate would be historic: McLeod-Skinner would be Oregon’s first openly gay congressional delegate, while Chavez-DeRemer is one of two House candidates aspiring to be the first Oregon Latina elected to Congress.
The 5th District isn't the only surprisingly close contest for Democrats in Oregon: The party is under siege in a closely watched gubernatorial race and the newly formed 6th Congressional District is also competitive.
