Suburban Republicans reflect on Oregon s GOP
In Clackamas County - a Republican stronghold - elected officials and party leaders decline to comment.
The Portland Tribune asked some of our suburban sister publications within the Pamplin Media Group to reach out to prominent Republicans in their community, to get their take on the rift within the GOP.
Reporter Sam Stites in Clackamas County found, across the board, Republicans reluctant to wade into the story.
Clackamas County GOP chair Margie Hughes did not respond to a request for comment. Neither did any other elected officials or party leaders in the county.
As far as county politics go, Republicans have been far more successful in recent years in Clackamas County than they have in Multnomah or Washington counties.
