Episode Details

Brandon Mullen, a progressive candidate hoping to represent Southeast and Northeast Portland, pulled out of the District 3 City Council race after learning he missed the residency and voter registration deadline by about two weeks — a critical oversight that disqualified him from the ballot. His exit shakes up the race, as District 3 is currently held by three incumbents — two progressive and one centrist — and the council has been deadlocked on key decisions. With Mullen’s campaign funds already raised — including over $40,000 in matching city funds — progressives now scramble to unite behind a new candidate to shift the council’s power balance.
