I’m writing to endorse Ken Levinsky for re-election as trustee of the Portland Water District. As a fellow trustee representing Portland, I have had the opportunity to serve with Ken in the 11 years he has been a trustee, during which time he has missed only one meeting.

District 4 voters have the opportunity to elect someone who embodies the ideals of a brighter tomorrow. Andrew Zarro is a small-business owner, environmental advocate and leader for a future Portland that works for all of us.

Let’s not overlook her nonstop lying, that she has almost no work or business experience, no relevant education, a mediocre track record in politics, can’t demonstrate that […]

I dreamed of living in Portland for the rest of my life but, like many of my (young, professional) peers, recently moved to a nearby town after six years of renting in the city.
