Democrat Tina Kotek, left, independent Betsy Johnson, and Republican Christine Drazan are running to be Oregon’s next governor. Survey results paid for by legislative Republicans and released on Thursday showed Drazan holding a narrow lead over Kotek, with Johnson in third.
Republican nominee for governor Christine Drazan and Democratic nominee Tina Kotek are leading in the three-way race for Oregon governor, according to new survey results released Thursday from a poll paid for by legislative Republicans.
Drazan had a slight edge over Kotek in the poll, although the two women were in a statistical tie at 32.4% and 31.4% support from likely voters. Unaffiliated candidate Betsy Johnson came in third at 24.4%, which puts her within striking distance of Drazan and Kotek given the poll’s 3.94% margin of error.
