Unpacking Election Day 2024 with The Oregonian’s politics team

Beat Check with The Oregonian

We’re a few days out from Election Day 2024, and reporters at The Oregonian/OregonLive have been hard at work trying to decode all the results and what they mean for our region. Portland’s got a new mayor, and the new City Council is coming into focus too.

Voters chose two new progressive Multnomah County Commissioner candidates over their more moderate opponents, while the Clackamas County Commission is on the verge of a big power shift. Democrats remain in the driver’s seat in Salem, and are poised to win nationally watched Congressional races in the Pacific Northwest too.

This week’s podcast breaks it all down, plus we’ll get into the Election Day moments we’ll still be thinking about six months from now.
