“The League of Women Voters of Oregon supports Measure 117 because of our strong commitment to improving democracy. Measure 117 will mean that Oregon voters have better choices and more voice in our elections.”
Lisa Bentson,
President of the League of Women Voters of Oregon
“Labor organizations like ours are longstanding leaders in the fight to improve our elections, expand our democracy, and give workers more power. That’s why we support Measure 117 – because ranked choice voting will give more voice to all Oregon voters.”
Ariana Jacob,
President of AFT-Oregon
“Many of the communities we serve have faced numerous barriers to participating in our democracy. Measure 117 would change that by giving Oregon voters more choice on their ballots.”
