Noteworthy events
Ineligibility for re-election (2023)
- See also: Noteworthy state legislative walkouts
On February 1, 2024, the Oregon Supreme Court ruled to uphold the decision of the Oregon Secretary of State to disqualify the 10 members of the Oregon State Senate from seeking re-election.[2]
On August 8, 2023, Oregon Secretary of State LaVonne Griffin-Valade (D) announced that ten legislators who participated in the walkout would be barred from re-election in 2024 under Oregon Measure 113.[3]
In a statement, Senate Minority Leader Tim Knopp (R) said "We believe the plain language of Measure 113 allows for members to run again in 2024 elections. We disagree with the Secretary of State’s determination and will challenge it in court.”[3]
On May 15, 2023, Senators Daniel Bonham (R), Dennis Linthicum (R), and Brian Boquist (I) became ineligible for re-election under Measure 113 when they accrued their 10th unexcused absence following a Republican walkout of the State Senate.[4] Oregon voters passed Measure 113 in 2022.
The walkout began on May 3, 2023, when all but two members of the Oregon Republican Senate caucus were absent from the legislative session preventing a quorum. As of June 1, the following 10 members of the Oregon State Senate involved with the walkout met the 10 unexcused absence threshold and are barred under Measure 113 from re-election:
- Daniel Bonham (R)
- Dennis Linthicum (R)
- Brian Boquist (I)
- Cedric Hayden (R)
- Senate Minority Leader Tim Knopp (R)
- Art Robinson (R)
- Kim Thatcher (R)
- Suzanne Weber (R)
- Lynn Findley (R)
- Bill Hansell (R)
Scorecards
A scorecard evaluates a legislator’s voting record. Its purpose is to inform voters about the legislator’s political positions. Because scorecards have varying purposes and methodologies, each report should be considered on its own merits. For example, an advocacy group’s scorecard may assess a legislator’s voting record on one issue while a state newspaper’s scorecard may evaluate the voting record in its entirety.
Ballotpedia is in the process of developing an encyclopedic list of published scorecards. Some states have a limited number of available scorecards or scorecards produced only by select groups. It is Ballotpedia’s goal to incorporate all available scorecards regardless of ideology or number.
