SALEM, Ore. — Republican State Sen. Christine Drazan is making her second bid for Oregon governor in 2026. She filed with the state's campaign finance system Monday morning, shortly before making a formal announcement at a news conference in front of a crowd of supporters at a Gunderson Marine & Iron facility in Portland.

"We are going to make Oregon number one for the best place in the nation to raise a family, start your business, grow your business, and get a world-class education," she said. "That means cut taxes. It means rush permitting. Grow our economy. Get our parks and sidewalks back. Help people get sober and stay clean. More cops and fewer needles in our neighborhoods. Raise test scores and respect families. Lower costs, cut red tape, work together."
