Christine Drazan appointed to Senate District 26 vacant seat

OREGON CITY, Or. -- Christine Drazan has been appointed to the Oregon Senate by Clackamas, Hood River, Multnomah and Wasco county commissioners.

Following this month’s resignation by State Senator Daniel Bonham, commissioners held a joint session earlier today to interview candidates and select a replacement.

The session was held over Zoom and will be archived on Clackamas County’s YouTube Channel soon.

Oregon law requires that a legislative vacancy be filled by county commissioners representing the district in which the vacancy exists. Senate District 26 includes voters in Clackamas, Hood River, Multnomah and Wasco counties. Finalists were selected by the local Republican Party, as deemed by state law.
