Independent Party Endorses Vicki Walker in Secretary of State Race

Rick Metsger comes in second

The Independent Party of Oregon, the state's third largest political party, has endorsed State Senator Vicki Walker in the Democratic Primary race for Secretary of State.

The endorsement was based on their records and the May 3 debate among the 3 Democratic candidates, hosted by the Democracy Action Group of the First Unitarian Church and the Alliance for Democracy, where the candidates answered detailed questions posed by Oregon activists very involved in election issues.
