Initiative filed to make Deschutes County commissioner seats non-partisan
If no successful challenge to measure, it ll need 6,700 signatures to make ballot
BEND, Ore. (KTVZ) An initiative filed with the Deschutes County Clerk’s Office would ask voters to decide whether county commissioner seats should become non-partisan.
Susan Cobb, the chief petitioner for the non-partisan county commissioners committee, says she believes commissioners hold judge-like powers meaning they should be non-partisan.
“So judges, as you know, are never partisan. And so it seemed to me that the position of being a judge, one should not be partisan,” Cobb said Tuesday.
County Commissioner Tony DeBone says he not opposed to having non-partisan commission seats. He says the current committee can even make the switch if they wanted to.
