OT - former NBE player wins primary election

[Mark Padgett]

I heard that instead of having the election, Dr. Kitzhaber is going to challenge him to a free throw contest.

He's running against a guy named "Kitzhaber?"
hmmmm.

Dudley 52
Kitzhaber 47
Mary Jane 11

I figure voters will be giving this election the full 110%.

I thought this was Oregon? Sounds more like Florida!

Your prediction of a Dudley victory is not likely. Registered Democrats outnumber registered Republicans in Oregon something like 56% to 42% with about 2% belonging to other parties or non-affiliated. The Republicans don't have even one statewide elected official.

However, Mary Jane may tip the vote. She's very popular here in Oregon. In fact, there's a guy down the street who grows her in his garage. Of course, he has a permit. Fortunately, like tons of other Oregonians, he rides a bicycle to work.

This where you get some of your meds from Mark? Bwahahahaha!

Here's a link to an editorial basketball cartoon in today's local paper about Dudley and his opponent.

I guess as long as Billy Packer is not the political analyst, it should be an interesting, if not foul-filled, contest.

Well, it's just a few weeks until the general election and Dudley is in a dead heat with his opponent, Dr. John Kitzhaber. The latest polls call it a jump ball, er, a toss up.

As you might have expected, both candidates have run a bunch of negative ads, just like every other candidate running for anything. If the election ends in a tie, I guess they'll go into OT. If Kitzhaber loses, he'll regret not having challenged Dudley to a FT contest.

I'm sure Camron will have some comments on this election.

Well, since Dudley can't jump, I guess the other guy has to be able to jump high enough to win the tip with Dudley's arm straight up then.
