Portland Candidates Caught Swapping Donations | Portland News
Description
Twelve Portland election hopefuls are under fire after Oregon’s DOJ uncovered emails revealing a scheme to swap campaign donations—aimed at hitting thresholds to unlock public funds. Though the act violates a felony law prohibiting coercion, no criminal charges will be filed due to the chaotic, historic election context: a new 12-member council, ranked-choice voting, and candidates largely unaware of the rules. The DOJ warns future offenders won’t get such a pass.
