I cannot in good conscience remain on the sidelines as Oregon's leaders push our state further into decline.
That's why today I'm declaring my candidacy for Oregon's 51st House District.
#orpol
I am so grateful to the many thousands of Oregonians who made their voices heard in this historic election. With several hundred thousand ballots yet to be counted, we continue to exercise patience as we await additional clarity regarding the final outcome of this race.
#orpol
Oregonians are tired of politicians who put their personal agendas ahead of hard-working families.
I'm running to provide a new direction for Oregon.
Check out our campaign's first TV ad of the general election ⬇️
#orpol
To the countless Oregonians who have put us on the doorstep of history: thank you.
Today may be the most consequential election for Oregon in a generation.
Let's get out the vote and make history!
#orpol
Four days left until we turn the page on Tina Kotek and Kate Brown.
If you want change, make sure you cast your ballot by November 8.
We need everyone to make their voices heard if we want a new direction for Oregon.
#orpol
Three more days until we begin a new direction for Oregon.
If you haven't dropped off your ballot, make sure you do so by Tuesday.
If you want change, we need your vote!
#orpol
“Oregonians can't live with four more years of the same. We’re saying no to four more years of Kate Brown.”
I spoke with
@seanhannity
about the stakes of our race here in Oregon.
#orpol
Tina Kotek voted with Kate Brown 99% of the time.
Together, they led our state through a decade of decline. Their time is up.
Time for a new direction.
#orpol
81% of Portlanders believe riots on our streets have hurt the city’s reputation.
But Tina Kotek enabled anti-police radicals and weakened law enforcement.
We can’t let her become Governor.
#orpol
Oregonians are reaching for change because the status quo is not good enough.
I'm ready to provide a new direction.
I spoke with
@IngrahamAngle
on the eve of this historic election.
#orpol
Are you better off today than you were four years ago?
If the answer is no, then join me as I lead our state in a new direction.
Watch my newest TV Ad ⬇️
#orpol
We have one week to go until Election Day.
If you haven't voted yet, drop off your ballot by November 8 to make sure your voice is heard.
Change is coming in seven days!
#orpol
This race is all about one simple question: are you better off today than you were four years ago?
I spoke with
@KVALNews
about how I plan to lead Oregon toward a new direction.
#orpol
Tina, you blocked legislation that would've reopened our schools. You caused this problem.
It's beyond disingenuous for you to call this crisis "unacceptable" when you helped cause it.
Oregonians have had enough of your failures and it's why we're turning the page.
#orpol
These numbers are unacceptable. As Governor, I will push to make sure all kids are reading by 3rd grade, schools are expanding career technical education, and we’re all working together to help every student succeed.
#orpol
Tina Kotek was Speaker of the House for nearly a decade.
She did nothing to address the homelessness crisis.
There is no greater indictment of her failed leadership than this issue.
#orpol
Oregonians are tired of status quo politicians like Tina Kotek and Kate Brown, who have made life worse for families across this state.
Bringing in a failing president isn’t going to save a failing candidate.
Our new direction begins on Nov 8.
#orpol
This election comes down to one simple question: are you better off today than you were four years ago?
If the answer is no, then vote for change this Tuesday.
#orpol
It was great to speak with leaders from Portland's Black and Arab communities today in Jantzen Beach.
I'm ready to be a Governor for all Oregonians and I look forward to fighting for communities across our state.
#orpol
There's nothing scarier than four more years of Kate Brown's policies under Tina Kotek
#KateAndTina
are wrong for Oregon.
Happy Halloween from
@TeamDrazan
!
#orpol
Oregonians are looking for change.
They're tired of seeing tent encampments on our streets while politicians do nothing to help homeless Oregonians.
I recently spoke with
@FoxNews
about the crisis on our streets and why Tina Kotek is unfit to lead.
#orpol
My Roadmap for Oregon’s Future will address challenges from crime to homelessness to education.
These are the issues that affect every Oregon family.
I discussed my plan for our state with
@MariaBartiromo
this morning.
#orpol
We're leading every poll against Tina Kotek.
Why? Because Oregonians are tired of status quo politicians and ready for a new direction.
We're going to make history on November 8.
#orpol
Tina Kotek is endorsed by Kate Brown and voted with her 99% of the time.
Now, desperate to save her political career, she's running attack ads against Governor Brown.
This is two-faced political maneuvering and it's not fooling anyone.
#orpol
My opponent is flying in presidents and presidential candidates to save her campaign because she has nothing to stand on after 10 years in power.
She's desperate to hide her failures from Oregonians.
Watch my interview with
@KVALnews
⬇️
#orpol
I could not be more excited to announce that Governor
@GlennYoungkin
will be joining us on the trail next week!
RSVP to join us on October 18 in Aurora -->
#orpol
"We need a new and hopeful direction for Oregon. Vote for Christine Drazan for Oregon’s next governor."
Thank you to the Josephine County Eagle for your endorsement.
#orpol
You spent a decade “sitting back” as crime rose in Portland.
Homicides went up 207% over the last two years alone.
And how will you work with law enforcement after you backed defunding the police?
#orpol
This level of violence is unacceptable.
As Governor, I won't sit back as crime rises in Portland.
I will work with local law enforcement AND fight to get illegal guns off our streets.
Speaker Tina Kotek and Gov. Kate Brown, a decade of bad decisions and failed policies. Kotek voted with Brown 99% of the time.
She can't hide the truth from Oregonians. A vote for Tina Kotek is a vote for four more years of Kate Brown.
Watch our new TV ad ⬇️
#orpol
You were Speaker for almost a decade.
You and Kate Brown had supermajorities, but no solutions.
You’ve been in power for years and things have only gotten worse.
Time for a change.
#orpol
Over two years ago I called for a homelessness state of emergency.
I am the only candidate with an actual plan to solve this crisis as governor.
Together, we will help folks off the streets, tent by tent.
Tomorrow is Election Day.
If you haven't turned in your ballot, make sure you do so by 8 pm tomorrow.
I need your vote if you want a new direction.
Change is coming!
#orpol
Oregonians are standing up to demand better from their elected leaders.
We’re firing the career politicians in Salem and giving power back to the people.
Let’s do this Oregon.
#orpol
Democrats, Republicans, and Independents are all rallying behind our campaign.
Why? Because they want a new direction for our state and they know I'm ready to deliver that on Day One.
Watch our newest TV ad ⬇️
#orpol
Team Drazan is everywhere across our state.
I’m so proud of all our supporters working to get out the vote around Oregon.
We’re ready for a new direction!
#orpol
🚨 BREAKING: Another independent nonpartisan poll shows we are leading Tina Kotek.
Four straight surveys have us winning this race.
The momentum is on our side. We will make history.
#orpol
My opponent voted with Kate Brown 99% of the time when the two ran a one-party government in Salem.
Now Tina Kotek is desperately trying to cover up her record to save her failing campaign.
Oregonians aren't buying it, they know she's more of the same.
#KateAndTina
#orpol
Billions in new taxes. Countless new fees.
Thanks to
#KateAndTina
, it’s never been more expensive to live and raise a family in Oregon.
We can’t afford four more years of failed policies.
Vote for change by November 8.
#orpol
We're not going to let Tina Kotek's lies go unanswered.
She is the original defund the police candidate.
Voters are going to hold her accountable for putting rioters before the men and women in Oregon's law enforcement community.
#orpol
Our campaign is the only one working to reach every community across this state, not just our own party’s voters.
I will be a Governor for all Oregonians and I can’t wait to lead this state in a new direction.
#orpol
It was great to speak to another packed house in Troutdale tonight.
The energy from our supporters is incredible. Oregonians are ready to flip this state in two weeks!
#orpol
This race is a historic opportunity for change here in Oregon.
I believe we can restore the promise of our state for generations to come, but we need new leadership.
If you want a new direction, cast your ballot by November 8.
#orpol
My opponent is literally calling for a “meth stabilization center” in Portland.
She wants to enable drug users to keep hurting themselves with the deadly substances.
This is insanity.
#orpol
Oregon Democrat Tina Kotek: "For Portland in particular, in addition to making [full drug decriminalization] to work, we need a meth stabilization center."
🤨
What an incredible night with Governor
@GlennYoungkin
and thousands of Oregonians who are standing up for change.
Ballots for out tomorrow. If you want a new direction, make sure you vote!
#orpol
We have less than four weeks to go until Election Day!
The energy we're seeing across this state is incredible.
We're ready to lead Oregon toward a new direction.
Change is coming.
#orpol
Tina, you were Speaker of the Oregon House for nearly a decade and homelessness skyrocketed.
No one's buying this from you.
My Roadmap for Oregon's Future will take actions that you could've and should've taken years ago.
#orpol
Over two years ago I called for a homelessness state of emergency.
Now I have a plan to help folks off the streets, tent by tent.
Meanwhile
@ChristineDrazan
and
@SenBetsyJohnson
only offer platitudes and snarky comments.
I'm staying in the fight. Last week, I announced the launch of
@newdirection_or
. This organization will be a megaphone for the people and policies that will help turn Oregon around.
Let's work together for a better Oregon.
#orpol
#orleg
We're just hours away from welcoming Governor
@GlennYoungkin
to Oregon.
We'll be be rallying with supporters in Aurora tonight so we can bring home a historic victory this November.
Hope to see you there!
#orpol
“As Governor I will ensure that we have law enforcement on our streets and that our communities are safe.”
I spoke with
@IngrahamAngle
on
@FoxNews
about our desperate need for safer streets in Oregon.
#orpol
"Do you want the status quo, or do you want change?"
I spoke with
@KATUNews
about the choice Oregonians face this Tuesday and the stakes in this crucial election for our state.
#orpol
Unlike Tina Kotek, I’m not afraid to say that Kate Brown deserves an F grade for her handling of the pandemic. She failed our kids.
Oregonians are tired of failed leadership, it’s time for a new direction.
#orpol
#inBend
Tina Kotek threw Oregon students under the bus.
She can't be trusted to stand up for students, teachers, and parents across our state.
I will be an education governor.
#orpol
When even coffee shops can’t stay open in Portland for public safety concerns, something needs to change.
Politicians have put their own power before keeping our communities safe.
That ends on Day One when I become Governor.
#orpol
Thank you to the thousands of supporters who joined us in Aurora last night.
We're ready to make history here in Oregon.
Ballots go out today, make sure you cast your vote to bring the change we all need.
#orpol
There is no greater indictment of Tina Kotek's failed leadership than homelessness on our streets.
She is personally responsible for what we're seeing. We can't have her as our next Governor.
#orpol
I'm an Oregonian, I care about this state, and I want to turn things around for every family who calls Oregon home.
I'm ready to lead our state in a new direction and I can't wait to bring home a historic victory on November 8!
#orpol
“Perfect storm in Oregon could pave way for Republican governor”
We’re on the brink of history because Oregonians are demanding change.
Our new direction starts on November 8!
#orpol
As governor, I’ve committed to reviewing every government regulation on the books with my first 100 days. Those found to be unnecessary or overly burdensome will be repealed.
We need to get the government off the backs of our small businesses.
#orpol
My plan to tackle homelessness:
Increase access to local addiction treatment programs and put new outreach workers on the ground, helping people move off the streets, tent by tent.
