OT - former NBE player wins primary election

[Mark Padgett]

Former NBE free throw clunker, Chris Dudley, won the Oregon Republican party primary yesterday for the office of Governor. Dudley beat eight other candidates and received 40% of the vote. Coming in second was businessman Allen Alley. Dudley will face the Democratic primary winner, former two-term Oregon Governor Dr. John Kitzhaber in November.

Dudley ran on what could be described as an "outsider" campaign, claiming his lack of previous connection with government would be an asset in office.
