Lars Larson: Multnomah liberals get worried about taxes

The Northwest Nonsense

If you want to run for Governor in Oregon, the rule has long been, lose Multnomah County and you lose the race.

Now a new poll shows the infamously liberal voters of MultCo call taxes a top concern. Hell has truly frozen over.

In just over one year, the number of voters worried about taxes has nearly quadrupled.

And what has incumbent Governor “cryptocurrency” Tina Kotek done with taxes…begged the legislature to pass billions of dollars more to feed an insatiable government. .

A week from today, the 19th of May, voters decide the fate of that crazy tax hike and I bet it goes down in flames 70 to 30 percent.

If Kotek had made any difference in housing cost, homeless and crime, Rose city voters might tolerate the higher taxes.

This might just explain why other polls show Portland voters disapprove of Kotek by a two to one margin…so get ready for Oregon’s first Republican Governor in four decades after Ed Diehl wins in November

That’s the Rose City Rap. Join me at noon on KXL for 4 hours of Honestly provocative talk. I’m Lars Larson
