Dear Voornaam, This weekend, Democrats will gather in Sunriver for the Oregon Summit, a celebration of Democrats who champion change and who remain steadfast in their dedication to promoting a better future for all. On Saturday October 21st at 1:00pm, we will host a Congressional District 5 Candidates' Forum, featuring Democratic candidates for CD5 who have opted to qualify for the event. NOTE: The deadline to qualify is 12pm, October 18th! The event will be open to everyone attending the Summit, and it will be live streamed for those who can’t attend. All Democratic candidates for CD5 were invited to opt-in to qualify for participation in the forum and three candidates have chosen to do so. Each has agreed to work to demonstrate that they are running a competitive campaign by meeting four minimum requirements in order to qualify to participate in the forum. One of the four qualifications is to collect on-line signatures from 150 registered Oregon Democratic voters supporting the candidate’s participation in the forum. If you’d like to help one (or more) of the three Democrats (who are listed below in alphabetical order by last name) qualify for the forum, please click on their link below to sign their on-line petition: Janelle BynumJamie McLeod-Skinner Lynn Peterson The DPO also needs your help in developing questions for the forum. If you would like to offer a question or an idea that could form the basis of a question used in the forum, please click here to submit your suggestion. (Any question asked during the forum will need to be fair to all participants and something to which any candidate could reasonably respond.) If you have not yet bought tickets to the Summit and would like to come, please buy your ticket here. Watch the forum here if you can't make it in-person! Yours in the fight for a better Oregon,
Oregon Democrats
