Richard Morley is clearly the BEST QUALIFIED candidate in this race. Neither a Republican nor Democrat, Morley will work independently to be a watchdog over state spending and reverse the erosion of our initiative petition process.
Morley will work to
End Mandatory Vote by Mail
- Bring back the civic experience of the private voting booth
- Let those who want to mail their ballots register to vote by mail
- Tighten controls to reduce the likelihood of voting and counting fraud
Use Auditing to Find Money for Schools and Tax Relief
- Obey the Oregon Constitution and be the "auditor of public accounts"
- Find waste and inefficiency, and report them clearly to Oregonians
- Confirm that recommended improvements are in fact made
Stop the rejection of legitimate voter signatures on initiative petitions
- Reverse the incumbent's unreasonable rules for rejection
- Eliminate the "one county only" rule on statewide petition forms
- Let voters "sign" initiative petitions using their May primary ballots
"This important office should be non-partisan. I am not connected with the two major parties who fight each other to gridlock in Salem. As an experienced leader, I can get things done. My biases are only against waste, inefficiency, and our government's relentless growth."
