More Insane Iannarrone Leads Less Insane Wheeler in Portland, OR
[WWeek] Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler trails his challenger Sarah Iannarone by 11 points, according to a poll of likely voters conducted by DHM Research on behalf of the Portland Business Alliance.

The results were presented at a PBA meeting last week.

Wheeler polled at 30% to Iannarone's 41%, with the remaining 29% of surveyed voters split between writing in a candidate (16%) or remaining undecided (13%)...

The results are somewhat surprising given that Iannarone
[who is overtly pro Antifa as opposed to Wheeler who is covertly pro Antifa]
finished more than 20 points behind the mayor in the primary, in which Wheeler nearly received the 50% plus one of votes required to avert a runoff.

At the same time, Wheeler has faced intense criticism throughout the summer for his handling of protests and policing. And another recent poll, conducted on behalf of a City Hall police accountability measure, had Wheeler at 26% favorability

#1 A Devil's Choice, "damned if you do
and damned if you don't." The best option is to move somewhere else. IMO, Portland suffers from mass insanity.

#3 I'm going to guess half the voters don't know she's full Antifa. Which, by the way, is only an idea.

#6 Sane Portlanders.... drive to Idaho, rent a truck (they have lots outside of the Pacific States) and drive back to get your stuff. Then get the hell out.

It won't be long before they are back in the suburbs and going after storage units.

It won't be long before a Portland address on your Drivers license prevents you from being able to buy or rent in other cities.
