10 | McCloud | Tim | governor | state | Republican | 5 | D | I fully support campaign finance contribution reform in Oregon but cannot support SB 1526-1 or Initiative Petition 45 as currently drafted. | I fully support campaign finance contribution reform in Oregon. I also support the evident intent of this legislation. However, as currently written, it is my personal belief that both pieces of legislation appear to require further development in critical sections, prior to advancing for ratification. | I have no preference | Other (specify) | Unfortunately, I do not believe that our Oregon bureaucracy currently has an ability to manage a fund of this type (or many others) without the significant risk of corruption and other drawbacks. I do not believe that a public campaign financing system is an effective solution to addressing these issues overall. The government's primary role in an election, is to ensure that our elections are protected from malfeasance and conducted with the upmost integrity. The government's role is not to act as a campaign financier in any way, as this poses a substantial threat to our election process by way of glaring conflicts against the public interest. | Advertisements for or against a candidate or measure must prominently disclose the names of the entities that paid for it (such as a candidate committee). Advertisements for or against a candidate or measure must prominently disclose the largest 4 sources of funds for each such entity.

Independent spenders must report not only their expenditures but any contributions they received to make those expenditures. Any contribution to a political committee or independent spender from a single source over $10,000 must be reported within 7 calendar days, no matter when received. | I am in support of campaign finance transparency as an important aspect of ensuring our election integrity. It is critical that voters are made aware of methods in which campaign finances are used as the single leading indicator of a successful campaign. Campaign finances are used by Oregon's major political parties (and many others involved in the process) as the primary tool for silencing the voices of legally qualified candidates. Arbitrary campaign fundraising markers do not and should not set the standard for leadership of our constitutional republic, as this data cannot provide an indication of broader representation or overall competency. | No | My pledges are to the People of Oregon, America, our Oregon Constitution, and the American Constitution. No other pledges are necessary to do right by Oregonians. | ||
11 | RICHARDSON | AMBER | governor | state | Republican | 5 | D | see below | I support campaign reform, and transparency in our elections. I have concerns about stating weather I support a bill in our Oregon process considering how bills get stuffed, and changed. By the time a bill gets out of the senate or the house it is not the same. So to stand behind something that will most likely get changed I can not do that. I do how ever fully support transparency, and a reform on our Oregon campaign financing. I ran a frugal and transparent campaign and had zero respect from our state and counties. Our state has been conditioned to believe if you do not have money you can not win. It has turned into buying elections, rather than what is most important. This is what poor leadership has done to our beautiful state. | I have no preference | Other (specify) | As stated before, I do agree with having a reform, I do agree with not rolling over funds, from campaigns to campaigns, to campaigns, but I can not stand behind bills that will most likely get stuffed and changed with deals. We have zero transparency and honesty in almost every facet of our branches in this state. The corruption is deep seeded. The people of Oregon have been so devastated by the complete disrespect of how this state has been ran, how are tax dollars have been abused. How every aspect of power in this state has truly turned a blind eye and let it happen. All while " we the people" truly suffered extreme consequences of each every choice made by our officials. I ran a very frugal campaign to show it could be done. Now the state wants to make people do it, these politician's should have done it from the beginning. We are in the worst inflation crisis we have ever seen, we will ever see. People will not know how to feed their families, will not know how to get to work, these politician's blew millions on Facebook ads, commercials. Its gross. So I'm off my soap box. We will see what happens to these so called bills, we will see if our state will start putting "we the people" first. I will not hold my breathe. | Advertisements for or against a candidate or measure must prominently disclose the names of the entities that paid for it (such as a candidate committee). Advertisements for or against a candidate or measure must prominently disclose the types of businesses from which the funders derived the funds. Any contribution to a political committee or independent spender from a single source over $10,000 must be reported within 7 calendar days, no matter when received. | As stated, I have no problem with complete transparency on campaign financing. I do not think the Government should be taping into Donor information. I feel like the government is trying to figure out who has what so they can tax people more. If they want to know about the campaign money great. I think there should be a cap as well, work with what you got.... But any government over reach in the guise of campaign reform is just a way to over step. So be careful with that as well my fellow patriots. | No | Now the government wants to take money from charity, it never ends. This is getting out of hand, I will donate my campaign money that I worked hard for however I see fit, maybe I will just give it back to the people who donated. I kept very good records of my donations. Patriots I hope you get to read the full questions in this survey the way I did. Remember how big the government is getting, this is why we have so many problems. God bless America | ||
12 | Merchant | Coach Kay | governor | state | Democratic | 3 | D | It is time for a new day. The Good Stewardship plan allows communities to be self governed through developing their own government and funding. | Personally, I think it is a conflict of interest for any of the government to profit from the voters and stakeholders. This includes all departments. The government should be a volunteer agency and all its departments and branches. The military and all its branches. The campaigning should have no contributions or donations or any party. All funding should go back into the communities. All hands on the deck to restore all communities leaving no community behind. This statement includes imprisoned incarcerated populations and their communities. I think the wealthy should volunteer as well. All industries should volunteer. No slavery, no capitalism. It should all be shared with equality mathematics to create an egalitarian humanitarian society that is cutting edge technologies and modernization. | I have no preference | This should be a race to serve the communities. All funding should go toward paying it forward to all communities inclusively as reparations or restorative justice to the environment and to all communites | Again, I am going a different direction. Maslow's hierarchy needs and motivation assessment for actualization transformative for all populations and communities to be self governed and create their own communities into their own government and provide funding. The wealthy and the current government has demonstrated that these two ideologies of capitalism is an exclusive ideology and system. It is a win/lose system. It is time to shift the attention to building communities with skills and resources to work together to build self government and allow them the power to develop their own group actualization system and autonomy system. Fighting with the old systems and wealthy systems will create a lose/lose result. The goal is to build a win/win result by allowing skills to come together and work for their own self government and build their own communities into self actualization transformative leadership system that provides their own satisfactory needs and motivation sustainable system. I would help expand our territories as a state by building these communities into their own governments and actualization systems giving them grants that they would not be qualified for by cosigning on all grants to make them qualified to see through their projects of self sustainable communities. Campaign reform begins with funding communities. | Any contribution to a political committee or independent spender from a single source over $10,000 must be reported within 7 calendar days, no matter when received. | I think the win/win is to build funding for all communities as an executive order to cosign to grants and loans that all communities who disqualify or dislocated should have rights to. To cosign to all populations who are not self govern or community who are not self govern but want to have an actualization transformative leadership system to be self governed and in self autonomy should have that option as a human right and civility right as a natural law right. It should not have to be a law. It should be protected by all governments as a peace treaty. Oregonians are citizens and should have the right to operate as self govern and self sustainable and quality of life and lifestyle choices. No campaign finance amount should interrupt that progress for all sharing of resources and properties and skills from free will. Forcing the wealthy and our current government to abide by the rules that is created is not happening now or it has not happened in the past. We have proof that working through our old government and working with the wealthy does not create sustainable and long effecting change. I am going in a different direction with campaign financing by building new community governments and self Governments cosigned and executive order protected by me as Governor if allowed to be Governor of Oregon. | Yes | I am going to use 100% to build self Governments and community governments and campuses as I said from the beginning, so all communities can have quality of life and lifestyle. No one will be left behind. No community left behind. This includes the incarceration imprisonment communities also. All of my funding will be used to be Good Stewardship platform campaign as a pay it forward campaign to equality mathematics solutions for a win/win. | ||

If that campaign is a true grassroots effort, it might not have the money to donate half the cost of the ad. Even if the other candidate pledged the same, no one can control what some 3rd party will do. I could see myself in that situation as I plan to run a very low cost campaign should I win the primary There needs to be a provision that limits the amount donated to some portion of the total campaign funds received. | |||||

I do not support "prominently" advertising the types of supporting businesses as defining the "type" of a business can be subjective and thus may still be obscured. Simply naming the top 4 largest sources of funds allows the interested party to investigate those sources directly without muddying the waters. | No | My opponent in this race is far better funded than I am.

Why not just outlaw third party advertisements? | https://www.jotform.com/uploads/danmeek/220907610030037/5268361007117698773/HB%202680A.pdf https://www.jotform.com/uploads/danmeek/220907610030037/5268361007117698773/HB%202923.pdf https://www.jotform.com/uploads/danmeek/220907610030037/5268361007117698773/HB%203343.pdf | ||||
29 | Ruiz | Ricki | state rep | HD 50 | Democratic | 15 | B | I support the campaign contribution limits in SB 1526-1 (2022) I support the campaign contributions limits in Initiative Petition 45 (2022) | I prefer the limits in SB 1526-1 (2022) | Yes | Advertisements for or against a candidate or measure must prominently disclose the names of the entities that paid for it (such as a candidate committee). Advertisements for or against a candidate or measure must prominently disclose the largest 4 sources of funds for each such entity. Advertisements for or against a candidate or measure must prominently disclose the types of businesses from which the funders derived the funds. Independent spenders must report not only their expenditures but any contributions they received to make those expenditures. Any contribution to a political committee or independent spender from a single source over $10,000 must be reported within 7 calendar days, no matter when received. | No | The People’s Pledge is known as a formal agreement between all candidates and their respective campaigns for an election cycle. This pledge cannot work if I am the only one committed to the pledge. Unfortunately, this means I have to say no unless my opponent indicates interest in the Oregon People's Pledge. | https://www.jotform.com/uploads/danmeek/220907610030037/5276009486123426248/HB%203343%20-%202021%20Session_941.pdf | ||||
30 | Storkson | Britt | state rep | HD 52 | Republican | 5 | D | I support full disclosure | Right now one can give any amount to any candidate at any time. They do that by "laundering" the monies through third parties like PAC's and Trade organizations. In fact contributions trade organizations by private companies can be "written off" as a business expense making them for all practical purposes taxpayer funded campaign contributions. Our current campaign finance is a joke. We need full disclosure. | I have no preference | Full Disclosure | Nothing less than full disclosure will work. | The above is not full disclosure, only partial disclosure. | Yes | That's fine but full disclosure is better. | |||
31 | BAUMHOFER | STAN | state rep | HD33 | Republican | 16 | B | I support the campaign contributions limits in Initiative Petition 45 (2022) | I prefer the limits in Initiative Petition 45 (2022) | Yes | ||||||||
32 | Golden | Jeff | state sen | SD 03 | Democratic | 23 | A+ | Pretty comfortable with P-45. Prefer my SB 1561 (2022) | I would support P-45, but want clarity about maximum donations allowed through membership organization provision. Again, I prefer framework of SB 1561 (2022) | I prefer the limits in Initiative Petition 45 (2022) | Yes | Advertisements for or against a candidate or measure must prominently disclose the names of the entities that paid for it (such as a candidate committee). Advertisements for or against a candidate or measure must prominently disclose the largest 4 sources of funds for each such entity. Advertisements for or against a candidate or measure must prominently disclose the types of businesses from which the funders derived the funds. Independent spenders must report not only their expenditures but any contributions they received to make those expenditures. Any contribution to a political committee or independent spender from a single source over $10,000 must be reported within 7 calendar days, no matter when received. | No | It could be I'm not reading this right, but this seems like it might place on a candidate a large liability for something over which they have no control--honestly, no control. In 2018, i begged, BEGGED independent 3rd parties to stop advertising in my favor, and they doubled down on their efforts...later I was told it was because they knew what our campaign needed better than we did. I have zero confidence that my being liable for this kid of penalty would have slowed them down, because "they know better." And what's to prevent mischief, i.e, intentionally ineffective "support ads" designed to drain the supposedly favored candidate of funds? Unless I misunderstand this, it seems like a faulty idea. | ||||
33 | Christman | Kevin | state sen | SD 03 | Republican | 0 | D | I support campaign finance accountability and reform. | The reason this bill died in committee is because it is far too convoluted and problematic. It would not create true reform it would actually create less accountability in some ways and create pitfalls for insignificant rule violations. | I have no preference | I don’t see the reason for matching funds | Disclosure of funding should be easy to research. Advertisement is a broad catagory and again sets up a pitfall for insignificant violations especially for a newcomer to the campaign process. | No | This is not a realistic approach to campaign finance reform, it feels more like a gimmic rule subject to interpretation and confiscation of campaign funds by the government. I think there are more realistic approaches to true campaign finance reform. | ||||
34 | Ivie | Raquel | state sen | SD 07 | Republican | 9 | C | I support the campaign contribution limits in SB 1526-1 (2022) | I have no preference | Yes | Advertisements for or against a candidate or measure must prominently disclose the largest 4 sources of funds for each such entity. | No | ||||||

Any contribution to a political committee or independent spender from a single source over $10,000 must be reported within 7 calendar days, no matter when received. | No | While I agree that candidates should pledge to support the idea of limiting third party independent campaign activities, I find that the proposed pledge may significantly impact small revenue campaigns that may not be able to raise enough money to pay back 50% of a 3rd party, independent advertisement. | |||||
37 | Verbeek | John | state sen | SD 17 | Republican | 1 | D | I don't support any campaign contribution limits | No | Advertisements for or against a candidate or measure must prominently disclose the names of the entities that paid for it (such as a candidate committee). | No | The identity and citizenship of donors must be verified. | ||||||
38 | Blum | Alisa | state sen | SD 18 | Democratic | 17 | B | I support the campaign contribution limits in SB 1526-1 (2022) I support the campaign contributions limits in Initiative Petition 45 (2022) | We desperately need campaign finance in Oregon. | I have no preference | Yes | Advertisements for or against a candidate or measure must prominently disclose the names of the entities that paid for it (such as a candidate committee). Advertisements for or against a candidate or measure must prominently disclose the largest 4 sources of funds for each such entity. Advertisements for or against a candidate or measure must prominently disclose the types of businesses from which the funders derived the funds. Independent spenders must report not only their expenditures but any contributions they received to make those expenditures. Any contribution to a political committee or independent spender from a single source over $10,000 must be reported within 7 calendar days, no matter when received. | No | Since ads could be run without the candidate's knowledge, this practice seems unfair. I would be in favor of either taxing 3rd party advertisements or having the 3rd party contribute an additional 50% of what they are spending to charities. Effective campaign finance reform needs to put strict limits on these contributions. | ||||
