LOREN PARKS, ROB
KREMER & KEVIN MANNIX
ZERO IN ON CLACKAMAS COUNTY
If you thought Super PACs were just for DC
politics, think again. Super PACs and the Tea Party
have come to Clackamas
County trying
to buy this election.
The "Oregon Transformation Project PAC" headed
by anti-schools activist Rob Kremer (and funded
exclusively by three corporate CEOs who don't live here) just dumped
$67,000 more into the campaign of my primary opponent,
John Ludlow. Ludlow has
now received over $106,000 (!!) from Kremer's PAC,
trying to buy control of the Clackamas County Commission!
 But it gets worse.
Kevin Mannix (who lives in Salem
and lost several campaigns for Governor, Congress, and Attorney
General) has also set his sights on Clackamas County.
He's already sent out three factually-challenged newsletters
attacking me.
But wait, there's more!
Loren Parks (the sexual hypnotist from Nevada) just dumped $9,700 into Ludlow's campaign through
two front groups to foster a Tea Party takeover here.
Onward Oregon recently
noted that the "Tea
Party is organized and well funded to gain a foothold in Oregon by gaining control of Clackamas County."
 CLICK HERE to help me stop Loren Parks,
Kevin Mannix, Rob Kremer, John Ludlow,
and their Tea Party takeover!
These outrageous, unprecedented contributions call
into question who John Ludlow would serve as Clackamas County
Chair. Would he look out for the best interests of our county
residents -- or outside special interest groups?
Representing Clackamas
County in the
House for five terms, I've consistently fought and
won for our local working families, small businesses,
children, seniors, people with disabilities, and
veterans. I've stood up to special interests and Tea Party
attacks while protecting our community's most vulnerable residents and
the vital services they need.
Now I ask that
you stand with me.
We cannot let Tea Party activists dictate the future
of Clackamas
County. There
is too much at stake to let this election be quietly bought and sold to
the highest bidder.
CLICK HERE to elect a County Chair
to stand up for Clackamas County families!
My campaign is fueled by over 520 individual
donors, hundreds of endorsers, and dozens of volunteers --
a true grassroots campaign. I'll be a County Chair who
represents and works for all Clackamas County
residents - not just the interests of wealthy outside extremists!
Donate $25, $50, $100, $250, or whatever you can
afford. Every contribution helps us stop this Tea Party
takeover and get Clackamas
County back
on track, back to work, and moving forward!

HELP US GET OUT THE VOTE!
Ballots will be mailed
out in just 8 days and we still need to talk
to many voters across our County about my priorities for moving
Clackamas County forward! It is
important that we are out on the doors and on the phones talking with
voters about why this election is critical and why they need to return
their ballots!
We need the volunteer support
behind my campaign to get to the finish line on May 15th!
CLICK HERE
to join our group of dedicated volunteers!
We're canvassing every Saturday
and Sunday until May 15th. This weekend we'll be launching from
our office on Highway 224 in North
Clackamas. Sign up to walk and talk with voters in the
area!
Don't want to walk? We need
help making calls too! We have phonebanks on Monday,
Tuesday, and Wednesday evenings and on the weekend as well.
CLICK HERE to sign up
for whichever shift works best for you!
Also please look at your calendars
and think about how you can help out for GOTV (Get Out The
Vote). We'll have phonebanking
shifts all day everyday once ballots go out and we could really use your
help reminding voters to get their ballots in! Let us know how you
can help out during those last few crucial weeks of the Primary Election!

LAWN SIGNS!
This weekend we'll be assembling and delivering our
lawn signs. Many of you have requested one or two signs for your
yard. You may pick signs up at our office (6566 SE Lake Road,

If you haven't already put in a request, you can do so on our website -- or send an
email to info@electdavehunt.com.
And if you're available to help assemble lawn signs
this weekend, we would welcome the help!

LISTENING AND REBUILDING TRUST!
As I meet with constituents across Clackamas County
I hear from folks who are unsure of the County's direction and are
frustrated with misplaced priorities. Before we can move Clackamas County forward, we need to restore
people's trust and faith in county
government.
It begins with listening. As Clackamas County Chair,
I will work to create a two-way dialogue where residents
can share their concerns as well as their ideas for our County.
I've already made the commitment
to actively engage citizens by hosting Town Hall Meetings in
every city and community across our Countyat
convenient times and locations, every year. I've thoroughly enjoyed
the discussions during the last eight months in Boring,
Canby, Charbonneau, Estacada, Gladstone, Jennings Lodge, Lake Oswego,
Molalla, North Clackamas, Oak Grove, and
Wilsonville and I look forward to upcoming Town
Halls including:
Wednesday, April 25 @ 1:00 pm
Town Center Village
8709 SE Causey Ave. in
Happy Valley 97086
Thursday, April
26 @ 3:30 pm
Tanner Springs
23000 Horizon Drive in
West Linn 97068
Wednesday, May 2
@ 6:00 PM
The Avamere at Sandy
17727 SE Langensand
Road in Sandy 97055
Please join me!
