Thank you to the candidates we endorsed
​and everyone who supported them

PictureScott Bruslind chats with Pamela Watts at the election night watch party.
They weren't the results we were hoping for in key school board races, but we're proud of the candidates we endorsed and the great campaign efforts that unfortunately came up short. A big thank you to Greater Albany School Board candidates Michael Thomson and Ben Watts, Lebanon Community School Board candidate Scott Bruslind and all their supporters.
Two other candidates we endorsed — Miriam Cummins for Linn-Benton ESD Zone 6 Board of Directors and Dick Running for Linn-Benton Community College Zone 2-3B Board of Directors — were re-elected. Another Linn Dems endorsee, Amy Vetor, had increased her lead to 59 votes over Donald Frier III in their Linn- Benton-Lincoln ESD Zone 6 Board of Directors race, as of May 24.
We urged people to vote for Stacie Wyss-Schoenborn and she won with more 64 percent of the vote in her LBCC Zone 2-3A board race.
Here are results, as of May 24:
Greater Albany Public Schools Board
​  At-Large 1: Ryan Mattingly 5,973 (49.55%),  Ben Watts* 5,052 (41.91%), Grant Sherer 535 (4.44%), Lyle Utt 448 (3.72%).
  Zone 3:  Sean Taylor 6,241 (51.44%), Michael Thomson* 5,838 (48.12%).

Lebanon Community School Board 
​  Zone 1: Melissa Baurer 2,273 (64.25%), Scott Bruslind* 1,255 (35.47%).

Linn-Benton-Lincoln ESD Board
Zone 5: Amy Vetor 2,038* (50.35%) ​Donald Frier III 1,979 (48.89%).
Zone 6: Miriam Cummins* 2,217 (61.16%), Amber Aguinaga 1,349 (37.21%)

Linn-Benton Community College Board of Education
  Zone 2-3 A: Stacie Wyss-Schoenborn** 5,614 (64.26%), Vern Saboe 3,024 (34.61%).
  Zone 2-3 B: Dick Running* 7,116 (96.74%).
* Endorsed by the Linn County Democrats
** Recommended by the Linn County Democrats
