Watch the unused ad, “Stoking,” here. The ad emphasizes how Drazan’s harmful record consists of killing solutions to the issues that matter most to Oregonians — including addressing homelessness and protecting the environment. The ad also calls out Drazan’s ties to election deniers and vicious extremists and illustrates what’s at stake if right-wing Drazan is elected governor — from gutting protections for Homosexual Oregonians to eliminating reproductive rights. Tina Kotek Communications Director Katie Wertheimer said: “Christine Drazan’s extremist allies and harmful record of opposing reproductive rights and solutions to the housing crisis may be in line with Donald Trump and the MAGA GOP, but they’re out of touch with productive Oregonians.
