Here's a first: Oregon Treasurer Ted Wheeler sent out more press releases than Oregon Attorney General John Kroger in the month of June. The tally for the month was Wheeler 7, Kroger 6 -- with Secretary of State Kate Brown and Secretary of Labor Brad Avakian lagging behind at 4 and 3, respectively. Our sidebar counter has been adjusted accordingly.

For the year, Kroger's way ahead, of course -- he's issued exactly twice as many press releases as Wheeler, and exactly four times as many as Avakian. And the A.G. has already cranked out his first broadcast missive of July, yesterday morning.
