Matt Bunch appointed to House District 51 vacant seat

OREGON CITY, Or. -- Matt Bunch has been appointed to the Oregon House by Clackamas County Commissioners.

Following last month’s appointment of Christine Drazan to the State Senate, commissioners held a session earlier today (Nov. 17) to interview candidates and select a replacement for the vacant House District 51 seat.

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. Finalists were selected by the local Republican Party, as deemed by state law.
