Message from the Chair! 10-6-26
Dear Frends, Neighbors and All Those Who Want to PROTECT OUR WAY OF LIFE
This election year is the most important election in our life time
Dear Friends, Neighbors, Republicans, and Conservatives in Deschutes County,
The upcoming 2026 election is critical for Deschutes County as we restructure our local government. This election represents a historic turning point for Central Oregon and offers a crucial opportunity to shape the future of our region.
Several key factors drive the importance of this election cycle:
1. Shift in Political Control: Although officially nonpartisan, the county commission has historically maintained a conservative majority. In 2027, we face a shift in leadership that will alter the board's balance and directly impact our local governance, values, and liberties.
2. High-Stakes Decisions on Local Policy: The expanded board will manage the county budget and make key decisions on major regional issues, including:
• Siting a New Landfill: Selecting and approving a location as Knott Landfill nears capacity.
• Homelessness and Housing: Directing funding and oversight for service partnerships and managed camps.
• Land Use: Balancing growth with property rights amid proposed policy changes that could restrict private land use.
3. Representation and Voting Systems: Voting YES on Measure 9-185 (Deschutes For All) is a vital opportunity to secure fair and balanced representation across Deschutes County. Passing this measure ensures every district has a commissioner who understands its specific community and gives you direct access to a representative who hears your concerns.
Please vote YES on Measure 9-185.
Best regards,
Your Vote Matters, check now to ensure your vote will be counted.

What do Republicans Believe?
The last few years the Deschutes Republicans have experienced a historic record increase of Precinct Committee People and volunteers joining us!
We are happy to work with our neighbors to help spread compassionate and common sense policies and support conservative leaders in our community. Increasingly, people understand that the Republican Party represents everyday families and working-class Americans.

Extremism has taken hold of the Democrat party in which many "center" individuals now find themselves aligning with Republican values. In fact, many have joined the Republican Party who converted from previously being Democrat or Non-Affiliated/Independent. The following tweet from Elon Musk portrays this dynamic...

And people who were previously "non-partisan" have joined the Deschutes Republicans because they realize that in order to affect positive change in our community and state, we must change the leadership.
Much has changed in the past few years, and it's become clear that We The People need to get involved with shaping our communities, state, and country, especially for future generations. Please consider joining us.
Deschutes Republicans welcome the participation of anyone who shares our beliefs in limited government, individual and religious liberty, fiscal responsibility and common sense in public-policy. Please join us!
