An Oregon congressional race tests the power of party labels

LA Times  

For nearly a decade, Donald Trump has ruled the Republican Party with a power that rivals the moon and tides. “What they should see is that I’m going to be thoughtful,” the congresswoman said after touring a union apprenticeship center in Tualatin, another upscale Portland suburb. “Rubber-stamps his ideas.” The Democrat’s wall-to-wall TV advertising is blunter still, showing Chavez-DeRemer with glowering images of the ex-president, his mini-me running mate, JD Vance, and scenes from the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol. “This isn’t about one side or the other,” Chavez-DeRemer told a meeting of Clackamas County law enforcement officers, before they delivered their endorsement. “I’m willing to work with anybody.” As a Latina, Chavez-DeRemer doesn’t look like most Republican members of Congress.
