Did you look at the competition? She was much further left and embraced Antifa. Her supporters referred to Wheeler as Tear Gas Ted for cracking down too hard.

Despite $33 million in cuts to the Portland police, Martin Luther King quotes on businesses windows, and the legalized hard drug measure that passed, they keep on rioting.
Not my problem. These people who live there get what they put up with. If they really wanted it to end they would do something about it. Businesses will leave.

Questions for the ages.

Mindboggling, isn't it?

It's like a Caucasian Somalia in some parts of that city.
