Republican Lori Chavez-DeRemer flipped Oregon’s 5th District seat red.
Oregon’s 5th District was represented by Democrat Kurt Schrader for 7 terms until he lost his primary to Democrat Jamie McLeod Skinner.
As of Friday morning Lori Chavez-DeRemer was at 50.9% to her opponent’s 48.8%.
Oregon Live reported:
Republicans have flipped Oregon’s pivotal 5th District seat in Congress, with Republican Lori Chavez-DeRemer defeating Democrat Jamie McLeod-Skinner in a race flooded with out-of-state GOP spending.
That means Republicans will at least double their number of Oregon’s seats in the U.S. House, with Chavez-DeRemer, the former mayor of Happy Valley, joining Republican Cliff Bentz, who represents the heavily Republican 2nd District that covers most of eastern Oregon.
Excellent point
